WORLDLE is a Geographic version of WORDLE.

https://worldle.teuteuf.fr/

Todays game is very easy so it's a good one to start with. (I can see a couple of beerlegger's houses on it)

Yes, today's was a nice change. I can sometimes get to within a few countries using the distance/direction hints, but often can't pull out the exact country in 6 tries. I'm amazed at how much I rely on context clues of neighboring countries which you don't get in this game. I did get one on first try a few days ago--it was Czechia, which I had stared at a lot when Esri implemented the map projection, Krovak, originally used for Czechoslovakia. As trivia, the Krovak projection/coordinate reference system uses southing, westing axes.

Yeah, but you got a clue with the jim.cox post "I can see my house from here."

Will need more practice to fully grasp what the data is telling me.?ÿ I was only a couple countries away on this first attempt.

Today's is more typically difficult.

Next game NERDLE, the mathmatical version of WORDLE. You write equations to find the correct numbers.

Nerdle - the daily numbers game (nerdlegame.com)

I don't know the little countries that well. Got yesterday's but would never have guessed today's in many more tries. I suppose it's cheating to use a map.

The equation game could hold my interest. I got it in 6 tries.

So what is the product being sold? I didn't see ads, so assume I am the product being sold somewhere.

@bill93?ÿ Wordle was just sold to New York Times for megabucks. All these other games don't need to make money any more than Amazon did in the beginning. They probably are collecting data from us to sell.

There's also:?ÿ Semantle, Quortle, Queerdle, Absurdle, Wordle(sp) and new ones almost daily. Semantle is the hardest. My niece, nephews and sister have gotten me into it.?ÿ
