Cross Wordle
Cross Wordle combines elements of Sudoku and Wordle. The game gives you a final word and the colors of the tiles in a grid. Your goal is to use the color clues to recreate the original Wordle grid by filling it in with the correct letters. So, like Wordle, the colors will tell you if a letter is in the wrong spot, the right spot, or not in the word at all.
Gameplay
1. Starting Information:
- You'll be presented with a final word, which is the solution the original Wordle player achieved.
- You'll see a grid with the same number of tiles as the original Wordle (usually 5x6).
- Each tile will be colored green, yellow, or gray.
2. Using Color Clues:
The colors provide clues about the letters in the original Wordle grid:
- Green: The letter in this tile was guessed correctly and placed in the right spot in the original Wordle.
- Yellow: The letter guessed for this tile is present in the solution word, but it's positioned incorrectly in the original Wordle.
- Gray: The letter guessed for this tile is not part of the solution word at all.
3. Filling the Grid:
Your goal is to use the color clues and the final word to reconstruct the original Wordle grid by placing the correct letters in each tile.
- Consider the final word and the color clues for each tile.
- If a tile is green, you know the letter in that spot for the final word is correct. Place it in the corresponding spot in your grid.
- For yellow tiles, you know the letter exists in the final word, but not in that specific position. Use the final word to find alternative placements for the letter in your grid.
- Gray tiles indicate the letter isn't used at all. Eliminate it from your options for other tiles.
4. Strategy and Deduction:
- Use logic and deduction to determine the most likely letters for each tile. Consider the final word and how the letters might interact with each other horizontally and vertically (like in a crossword).
- Filling in the correct letters in one tile can provide clues for others. For example, if a green tile reveals the letter "R" in the third position, you can eliminate "R" from other yellow or gray tiles.
5. Winning:
You win by correctly placing all the letters in the grid and recreating the original Wordle solution.
Additional Notes:
- Some versions of Cross Wordle might limit the number of guesses you have.
- The difficulty can vary depending on the chosen final word and the initial color clues.

Tips to Win
- The final word is your key to unlocking the puzzle. Analyze it carefully.
- Identify any unique letters or uncommon letter combinations.
- Use the final word to eliminate possibilities for colored tiles. For example, if a tile is yellow and the final word doesn't have a specific letter, you know that letter cannot be used in that tile.
