Welcome, Quordle fans! Whether you’re here to sharpen your guessing game or you’re feeling stuck and just need that final nudge, we’ve got you covered with all the Quordle hints and solutions for puzzle #829, dated Friday, May 2, 2025.
Before we dive into the juicy stuff — today’s hints and answers — let’s go over the basics for any newcomers who’ve just discovered the daily challenge of Quordle.
How To Play Quordle
Quordle is like Wordle… but turned up to four. Instead of solving just one five-letter word, you’re trying to crack four different five-letter words at once. The challenge? You only get nine guesses total.
Each guess applies to all four puzzles. Letters that are in the correct position turn green. If a letter is present in the word but in the wrong spot, it lights up yellow. And if it’s just not there? It’ll appear gray.
You can test your skills on practice puzzles before jumping into the daily Quordle, but if you’re already in the middle of today’s game and feeling stuck, let’s help you out.
