Wordlee Live is a guide to the daily five-letter word puzzle. You get six guesses to find the hidden word, and every guess shows colored tiles that tell you which letters are right.
This page explains how the game works, gives hint ideas that reveal only as much as you want, and lists tools to help when a puzzle feels hard.
How to Play
Type a valid five-letter word and submit it. The tiles change color after each guess, and you use those clues to choose a better next word. Solve it within six tries.
Start with common letters
Pick a first word with several vowels and common consonants.
Make every guess count
Use each attempt to test new letters or separate possible words.
What the Tile Colors Mean
Green
The letter is correct and in the correct place. Keep it there.
Yellow
The letter is in the word but in a different place. Move it.
Gray
The letter is not in the word. Rule out words that contain it.
Hint Ideas
Try the smallest clue first and only take a stronger one if you are still stuck.
1. Vowels
Count how many vowels the answer has to narrow the choices.
2. First letter
A known first letter gives you a clear starting point.
3. Last letter
A known ending removes many possible words.
4. Repeated letters
Some answers use the same letter twice, so do not assume each letter appears once.
5. Letter pattern
Combine confirmed positions with letters you have ruled out.
6. Meaning
Think of common words that match the meaning and your pattern.
Tips and Strategy
Use green letters
Keep green letters fixed in later guesses.
Move yellow letters
Place them in a new position each time.
Eliminate gray letters
Removing them shrinks the list of possible words.
Do not waste guesses
If several words fit, pick one that tells you the most.
When a Puzzle Feels Hard
Hard puzzles usually leave several words that share the same pattern. Review the whole board before each guess instead of guessing at random.
Mostly gray tiles
Those letters are ruled out, so focus on the ones that remain.
Many yellow tiles
You know the letters. Work on their positions.
Several words fit
Use a guess that separates them.
Last guess
Check every green and yellow clue before you submit.
Help and Tools
A word finder or five-letter word list can help when you know some letters but cannot see the whole word. Enter your green, yellow and gray letters and compare the words that match.
Unlimited and Other Ways to Play
If one puzzle a day is not enough, some sites offer unlimited practice puzzles, custom puzzles you can share with friends, and related games such as Connections. Rules differ between sites, so read the instructions first.
