If you enjoy daily word challenges like Wordle, then Hurdle is another excellent puzzle to test your vocabulary and deduction skills.
The game consists of five rounds. In the first four rounds, you guess individual words, receiving feedback for correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters. Each correct solution becomes the starting guess for the next round, which may help—or sometimes mislead—you depending on the letters involved.
In the final hurdle, all previously solved words appear together. Correct and misplaced letters are highlighted to guide you toward the last answer.
