Wordsmith
A Wordle-inspired roguelike on itch.io.
HardcoreView game
The hardest Wordle-like game is not a single title. People usually want more boards (Octordle), an adversarial opponent (Absurdle), a semantic slog (Semantle), or a larger rule system such as The Password Game.
We exclude Codele and Horsle from the playable list because their hosts were not verifiable during the last check. Doctordle also remains unlisted because no stable host was independently verified.
Difficulty ladder
| Rung | Play this | Why it is here |
|---|---|---|
| Warm-up | Dordle | Two boards, seven tries |
| Mid | Octordle, Waffle | Eight boards or 15 swaps |
| Hard | Absurdle, Semantle | Moving target or pure meaning |
| Silly / spicy | Wordsmith, Password Game | Roguelike and 35 rules |
| Ceiling | No stable host listed | We do not publish an unverified page |
Like Wordle but it’s always horse / solve the C code / roguelike
Wordsmith on itch.io is the Wordle roguelike. The Password Game (Neal Agarwal, 27 June 2023) is the 35-rule challenge. Duotrigordle appears in search results, but it is not part of this checked catalogue.
