Wordle isn’t quite the draw for me it once was. I still play it most days, but I’m not hitting it first thing in the morning and I don’t care about preserving a streak anymore. Sorry, Wordle: the spark is gone.
If, like me, you’re on the hunt for a new daily puzzle game, you should take a look at Hunch, which has Wordle-style play but is much, much harder. Put it this way: it’s gonna take you more than 6 guesses. Maybe a lot more. Hunch is the Dark Souls of Wordle, basically.

It’s Mastermind meets Wordle, essentially, so you can easily blow through a dozen or so guesses before you even really get a handle on what the word could be. Unlike Wordle, there’s no limit on guesses, so you just keep on going until you figure it out. I’ve… I’ve had some really, really long runs before I figured out the word. Too long to share with you.
Hunch has a daily puzzle to wrap your brain around, and a cool “cascade” mode that requires solving three words consecutively. If you create an account there’s even a multiplayer mode where you can challenge a friend to see who’s got better hunches. Hunch was created by designer Bennette Sebastian and you can play it here.
