Worldle: Daily geography puzzle game

1 Country, 6 Guesses, 1 Daily Game

You've seen Wordle taking the world by storm, but have you heard of Worldle? Somewhat a tribute to the word game but distinctly geographical, Worldle tests your knowledge of geography using the shape of a country which you must identify in six guesses.

Review

The game is pretty simple and borrow some of the same features as Wordle:

  1. There is one puzzle per day. No need to worry about losing 2 hours in one sitting to an addictive game.
  2. You get up to 6 guesses.
  3. It you pay attention to the result of an incorrect guess, you get 3 hints:
    1. The game tells you how far you are off the correct answer by distance.
    2. The next clue tells you the general direction on a map you need to look from your incorrect guess to the correct country.
    3. Finally, the percentage hint is like the distance clue but puts measures distances around the earth as a percentage from the farthest (lower percentages) to the nearest (larger percentages).
  4. Sharing your results looks much like the results shared via Worldle.

We hope you find a little joy—or a daily obsession—in this simple geography game.
