Colour blind mode

I am playing on the colourblind mode.

I didn't know there was one.

It looks better than the normal mode.

That was harder than I expected.

The cog in the top right allows you to switch between hard mode, dark theme and colour blind mode

Dark theme doesn't look as good as normal theme.

 

[Gralin]

has anyone tried hard mode?

 

[Chief]

Jebus it just wouldn't come out. Although twice I stupidly put the same letter in the same wrong place

Last one was a blind guess. (Well, a couple of options weren't available so it was partially sighted.

has anyone tried hard mode?

Officially no, but it tends to be the way I play already

Officially no, but it tends to be the way I play already

What does it change?

 

[cats_09]

What does it change?

According to its description, "Any revealed hints must be used in subsequent guesses"

I haven't used it, but I'm guessing it blocks the option of the second word having no link to the first word and being used just to lock in or eliminate letters, say if you're trying to work out what vowels are in the correct word

Getting some right at the start can be both helpful & frustrating when trying to plug gaps


Wordle 212 4/6







I then mucked around with hard mode on my iPad (different first word used) and with my second guess I ignored the learnings of the first word

• it wouldn't accept my choice of words for the second guess when I didn't put a green letter back in its correct position
• nor world it accept a word if I left out an orange letter
• though it accepted a word with just a single change in letter & keeping anything orange in its same position
