    Anyone else been trying out Absurdle? Basically the game changes the secret word based on your guesses until you can corner it. Impossible to get it in less than 4 tries.

    ABSURDLE
    by qntm
    This is an adversarial version of the excellent Wordle.

    "Adversarial" means that Absurdle is actively trying to avoid giving you the answer. With each guess, Absurdle reveals as little information as possible, changing the secret word if need be. (Well, sort of: here is a detailed explanation.)

    Other than that, the rules are the same as Wordle's, except you have unlimited guesses. You'll need them! The best possible score in Absurdle is 4 guesses.

    Thought I was going to get it in 2 or 3 for sure after my original popped 3. Fell in the same sonar trap.

    Seems like the best strategy is start with words with rare letters so they get eliminated. And basically you will always get double letters

    now who in their right mind would guess "shire," vs. "shore." wordle should give me an asterisk on my score imo.
