Players have to guess four words. The game offers no clues. The game has four different sections – one for each word. Start by guessing a five-letter word. Choose a word with the most commonly used alphabet, e.g., A, E, S, R, T, I, E, O, U, etc. The word you type will appear in all the four sections. A green alphabet indicates that it is in the word and the right place. A yellow alphabet suggests that it is present in the word but is in the wrong place. Grey alphabets are not a part of that word. Base your next guess depending on the placement of these colored alphabets.

Answers For Today’s Quordle Game 988

The first word is TROUT.

The second word is HATER.

The third word begins is BARGE.

The fourth word is DOZEN.

Today’s Quordle was a bit sneaky. If you got ATER in line for the second one, then it may so happen that you end up wasting a couple of tries before you could land at HATER; you had WATER to wade in, LATER to make you late before you could end up at HATER. I mean, why Quordle? Why waste our attempts? Anyway, we hope you had a good game. LATER, Quordlers!
