The duel, against people

Victordle made Wordle a contest: two players, one secret word, and the better solver wins. Wordle VS keeps that and puts a real person across the board. You both guess the same word at the same time on your own boards, and the first to turn all five tiles green takes the round.

You can see how many guesses your opponent has used and how many letters they've found, but never their letters. When they're one guess from solving it, you'll feel it.

Ways to play

  • Quick Match: a Wordle 1v1 against whoever is queuing: 3 rounds of 2 minutes, then Play again in one tap. When nobody is around, a computer opponent steps in after a short wait, from easy up to expert.
  • Challenge a friend: make a room, send the link and play 2 player Wordle with 1 to 10 rounds and the timer you choose.
  • Up to 4 players: a four-way competitive Wordle race, or co-op on one shared board.
  • Warm up alone: Wordle practice with unlimited words, and a daily word with streaks.

How it works

From link to first guess in under a minute.

  1. Start a room

    Play as a guest in one click, or make a free account to keep your stats. Then create a room.

  2. Invite your friends

    Share the room link in any chat. It opens straight into your lobby, on phones too.

  3. Race to the word

    Everyone guesses the same five-letter word. Green is the right spot, yellow is in the word.

A Right letter, right spot B In the word, wrong spot C Not in the word

Two ways to play

Pick a mode in the room settings before the game starts.

Free-for-all 2 to 4 players

Race to the word

Every player gets their own board and six guesses. The first to solve the word wins the round, and whoever wins the most rounds wins the game.

  • Watch everyone's rows fill in live
  • Perfect for 1v1 Wordle or a 4 player showdown
Co-op 2 to 4 players

Solve it together

The team shares one board and takes turns guessing. Talk it through in chat and crack the word before your six guesses run out.

  • Great for families and mixed skill levels
  • Everyone wins or loses as a team
