Wordle on Game Boy is fun, but is it Wordle anymore?

It was created by an IT security researcher and hacker known asStacksmashing, so… Because, well, I wanted Wordle on a Game Boy.

The game looks exactly like Wordle and plays pretty much the same, too.

It has its own little keyboard and that all-too-familiar grid offering six chances to guess a five-letter word.

There are apparently 8,000 words in the game’s repository, so not every Wordle game is included.

Correct guesses are black, correct letters that aren’t placed right are gray.

Once you’ve guessed it, you’re able to try another.

There aren’t any collected stats, though.

Considering you might play other Wordle games for free on a phone, this whole concept is absurd.

For me, not really, but it’s good Wordle practice.

Speaking of Word games for the Game Boy, I have a copy ofWordtristhat I’ve started playing again.

The letter-dropping word-based Tetris spin-off, released in 1991, is still fun.

It should be rereleased in our Wordle times.
