Wordle has attracted the attention of many fans since its release. Its success was so great that the game was acquired by the New York Times and soon many different versions or games inspired by it were released.
There are versions that are close to the original, but give a special touch to the recipe. In the case of Dordle, Quordle, and Octordle, they have their players guess five-letter words like Wordle, but with the added challenge of guessing multiple words at once. Respectively, two, four, and eight words with the highest number of attempts, of course. In addition to the daily challenge, all these versions also have a random mode, so players don’t have to wait for the next day to continue playing.
Wordle uses a general dictionary as a basis for the words your players need to guess, but if you want a specific version of the game, you have plenty of options. Whether you’re a Star Wars fan, a Swiftie, or a member of the BTS Army, there are more likely versions of the word puzzle made for your narrow interest. The answer set for all these games will be exclusively from terminology familiar or common in the fanbase, making it a significantly smaller set to guess.
If you like this word game, there’s sure to be some additional Wordle for you to enjoy.
But if you’re still stuck in the original Wordle after expending your efforts and only finding out that the secret word has the letters ‘U’ and ‘Y’, without even knowing their positions, here are some five-letter words with ‘U’ and ‘ Y’, sorted alphabetically so you’ll have less work to do with filtering your choices by the letters you’ve already eliminated.

All the words on this list are accepted by Wordle and will give you more clues as to which letters are present or not in the word of the day until you get it right.
Another good tip to get it right as early as possible is to find which other vowels are present in the word of the day to narrow down your options. Beware of words that may have repeated letters and don’t forget to try words you already know first, since Wordle tends to choose more common words as the right answer, at least in most cases.
These tips should help you complete your latest Wordle task.
