Wordle Hint: Today’s Wordle #1715 Hints And Answer For Saturday, February 28
This wordle hint covers Today’s Wordle #1715 for Saturday, February 28 and notes the bonus custom Wordle included with the daily guide as the month closes.
Wordle Hint and the bonus custom Wordle
It’s Saturday, the last day of February, and the post includes a bonus custom Wordle. Now that we can create our own custom Wordles, the author is including a bonus Wordle with each daily Wordle guide; these can be 4 to 7 letters long. Today’s Bonus Custom Wordle is 6 letters long, and Yesterday’s Custom Wordle Answer was listed as MIRROR.
How the game is played and the puzzle rules
On Saturday, February 28 the guide reiterates how Wordle works: Wordle is a daily word puzzle game where your goal is to guess a hidden five-letter word in six tries or fewer. After each guess, the game gives feedback to help you get closer to the answer, and readers are told to use these clues to narrow down guesses. Every day brings a new word, and everyone around the world is trying to solve the same puzzle.
The author’s solving sequence: STALE, CHOIR, HYDRA
For Today’s Wordle #1715 on Saturday the author described the play sequence. STALE was an unlucky opener, leaving the author with 202 words and one yellow ‘A. ’ CHOIR reduced the possibilities to five, and the author then chose HYDRA (noting they very nearly went with HARDY). The post includes a brief etymology: hydra comes from Greek hydra “water-serpent, ” from hydōr “water, ” and the mythic Lernaean Hydra was a multi-headed serpent slain by Heracles. The entry of the word into English in the 16th century is noted, and the post adds that hydra later broadened metaphorically to mean any many-headed or proliferating problem (for example, “a hydra of corruption”).
Competitive Wordle, Wordle Bot and scoring notes
The author notes that some Wordlers play Competitive Wordle against friends, family, the Wordle Bot or the author. Every day the author checks Wordle Bot to analyze guessing; readers are told they can check their Wordle score with Wordle Bot right here. The Bot-and-author scoring is described: The Bot and I each get 1 point for guessing in three and 0 for tying. Our final February totals ended up at:
