Guessing a completely random word that you already know isn't the solution, just to eliminate three or four possible letters you haven’t tried yet, is thought of as a desperate, latch-ditch move in Wordle. If you’ve narrowed it down to “-IGHT,” you could guess “MIGHT” “NIGHT” “LIGHT” and “SIGHT” and one of those will probably be the solution - though this is also a famous way to end up losing in Wordle, particularly if you play on “ hard mode.” In Quordle, however, this sort of single-letter winnowing is a deadly trap, and it hints at the important strategic difference between Wordle and Quordle: In Quordle, you can't afford to waste guesses unless you're eliminating as many letters as possible at all times.

But it's not nearly as intimidating as it sounds. It looks like playing four Wordle games at the same time, and that is essentially what it is. You get nine guesses instead of six to correctly guess all four words. Quordle is a five-letter word guessing game similar to Wordle, except each guess applies letters to four words at the same time.
