Absurdle is an intriguing and adversarial variant of the popular word-guessing game Wordle. While maintaining similar mechanics to Wordle, Absurdle adds a unique twist that challenges players in a whole new way.
Playing Absurdle follows the same basic rules as Wordle, with players attempting to guess a secret word within a limited number of attempts. However, the game operates differently behind the scenes, making it a more challenging experience.
Guess the Word: Similar to Wordle, players begin by guessing a word that they think might be the secret word.
Consider All Possibilities: Unlike Wordle, which selects a single secret word at the start of the game, Absurdle considers the entire list of possible secret words that match the guesses made so far.
Prune the List: With each guess, Absurdle narrows down the list of potential secret words as minimally as possible, intentionally prolonging the game and increasing the challenge for players.
Continue Guessing: Players continue to guess words, and Absurdle adjusts its internal list based on each guess until the secret word is revealed or the maximum number of attempts is reached.
To illustrate how Absurdle works, let's consider an example:
Suppose the player's first guess is "TERNS". Absurdle then evaluates every word in its list of possible secret words and determines its response to each guess. This process continues with subsequent guesses until the secret word is discovered.
Absurdle offers a fresh and challenging take on the classic word-guessing game, providing players with a unique and engaging experience. With its adversarial mechanics and clever gameplay, Absurdle is sure to captivate word game enthusiasts and puzzle lovers alike. So why not give it a try and see if you can outsmart Absurdle?
