**New York, NY -** Stuck on today’s Wordle? Don’t despair! NBCUniversal is here to help those of us whose brains are turning to mush this fall. The popular word puzzle, acquired by The New York Times in 2022 after a meteoric rise, continues to challenge players with its daily five-letter word game.
For the uninitiated, Wordle offers six chances to guess the correct word. Correct letters in the correct position turn green, correct letters in the wrong position turn yellow, and incorrect letters turn gray.
