For fans who appreciate the simplicity of Wordle, advertising can be a rude surprise. Part of Wordle’s appeal is this simplicity: you take your picture in the puzzle of the day, decide if it’s worth sharing your trip on Twitter, then close the tab and move on. And this was by design, as noted in the NYT profile of Wordle creator Josh Wardle: But since Wordle was originally built just for Mr. Wardle and Ms. Shah, the original design ignored many of the hacking development features virtually expected of games today. While other games send alerts to your phone hoping you’ll be back all day, Wordle does not want a strong relationship. “It’s something that encourages you to dedicate three minutes a day,” he said. “And this is. Like, he does not want more time than him “. When the NYT bought Wordle just a few weeks later, they promised that “once it moves to the New York Times, Wordle will be free to play for new and existing players and no gameplay changes will be made.” But that promise obviously does not extend to the results screen, which has seen a change. The NYT did not immediately respond to a request for comment. However, if you’re right in advertising Wordle’s Spelling Bee, you should know that Wordle really owes a lot to the bee-themed spelling game. According to the NYT profile, Wardle and his partner were heavily involved in Spelling Bee in 2020 and the decision to limit Wordle players to one game a day “imposed a sense of lack, which [Wardle] said it was partly inspired by Spelling Bee. “ So if you’re a fan of Wordle after your daily game is over, you may want to give Spelling Bee a try – or just wait until tomorrow for a new Wordle.
