Not enough Wordle in your life? Try these 10 word game spinoffs

Brett Molina, USA TODAY
Sat, March 12, 2022, 4:48 AM·3 min read

Want to know the worst part about playing Wordle? When you finish the day's puzzle.

Each day, a new five-letter word appears, urging fans to try and guess with six attempts. Maybe they get it on the first try (yeah, right). Perhaps they don't get it at all.

Regardless of how we finish, there's an empty void in our brain waiting to be filled by the next day's Wordle puzzle.

Thanks to Wordle's success, ultimately leading to its acquisition by The New York Times , there have been several spinoffs to scratch that Wordle itch in different ways.

We've listed the 10 top variations of our favorite word game.

Word Master

Just like Wordle, you have six tries to guess the five-letter word in Word Master. The letters on each guess change color depending on the letter. Green letters are correct and in the right spot. Yellow letters are in the word, just not in the right place, and gray letters are not in the word.

Here's the important difference: You can play as many rounds as you want. You can also adjust the difficulty level from easy to hard.

Wheeldle

Similar to Word Master, Wheeldle lets players tackle as many word puzzles as they want. Players are encouraged to build up streaks to see how many puzzles they can solve in a row. It's also got a really cool retro video game vibe.

Dordle

Maybe Wordle is just too easy for you? Then check out Dordle, which requires players to solve two Wordle puzzles at once. Every guess populates two different puzzles, so what may work pretty well for one might not for the other. You can choose to play one Dordle a day or free Dordle, where you can play repeatedly.

Quordle

Oh, I guess Dordle is child's play, too. There is also Quordle, where you get to tackle four Wordle puzzles at the same time. You can play the daily puzzle or enjoy practice mode.

    Occidental Stock Rose Wednesday on Heavy Volume. Was Warren Buffett Buying?

    Occidental Petroleum shares rose sharply on Wednesday, bucking weakness in the energy sector on very heavy volume, amid speculation that Warren Buffett was adding to Berkshire Hathaway large stake in the energy company. Shares of Occidental (ticker: OXY) gained 5.3%, to $57.50, on Wednesday, continuing its recent rally and running counter to the rest of the energy sector as the exchange-traded fund (XLE) declined 3%, to $75.17, and industry leader Exxon Mobil (XOM) fell 5.7%, to $82.79. Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A and BRK.B) was a big buyer of Occidental last week, ending Friday with 91 million shares, or nearly 10% of the company, after purchasing over 60 million shares on Wednesday through Friday.

    Exclusive-Russia's attack on Ukraine halts half of world's neon output for chips

    WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Ukraine's two leading suppliers of neon, which produce about half the world's supply of the key ingredient for making chips, have halted their operations as Moscow has sharpened its attack on the country, threatening to raise prices and aggravate the semiconductor shortage. Some 45% to 54% of the world's semiconductor-grade neon, critical for the lasers used to make chips, comes from two Ukrainian companies, Ingas and Cryoin, according to Reuters calculations based on figures from the companies and market research firm Techcet. Both firms have shuttered their operations, according to company representatives contacted by Reuters, as Russian troops have escalated their attacks on cities throughout Ukraine, killing civilians and destroying key infrastructure.

    ECB seeks to reconcile soaring inflation with war risks

    FRANKFURT (Reuters) -The European Central Bank is likely to make as few policy commitments as possible on Thursday as the shock of Russia's invasion of Ukraine up-ends its expectations for the economy and leaves policymakers grappling with new realities. With inflation in the euro zone at a record high even before Moscow began its assault on Feb. 24, policymakers had been expected to announce an end to years of money-printing stimulus, opening the way for an interest rate hike late this year. But the war has shattered that consensus and the 25-member ECB Governing Council will go into the meeting divided, raising the chances of a policy surprise -- and the risk of an error.

    Investors know that the key to profits is in the return – and that means, a willingness to shoulder risk. Risk is relative, of course, and tends to run hand-in-hand with the return potential. Find a stock with a giant return potential, and chances are, you’ve also found one with a higher risk profile. The highest returns usually come along with the lowest share prices. After all, when a stock is priced for just pennies, even a small gain in share price translates into a huge return. Which means
