You realize that this is exactly how wordle works right?



In Worldle you need only guess one word. The player can do whatever they want to get there, but there is only one valid solution. Having two (or more) valid solutions to a game, but only accepting one of them, is unfortunately a recipe for frustration.

The equivalent would be if Worldle made you also guess each intermediate word to get to the solution.


Why does guessing a series of words change whether it's bad to have one solution?


Wordle starts out with thousands of valid solutions, right?
