Eight words. Thirteen guesses. One shared keyboard.

Octordle asks you to solve eight five-letter words at the same time. Every word you enter is checked against all eight boards, so one useful guess can move several puzzles forward. You have thirteen guesses to find all eight answers.

Read the colours on each board separately

A green tile means that letter is in the right position. A yellow tile means the word contains the letter in another position. A grey tile means that occurrence of the letter is not needed on that board. A repeated letter can receive different colours, so use the feedback from the whole guess.

The same guess often produces different clues on different boards. If a letter is grey on one board, it may still be useful on another. Check all eight results before deciding what to rule out.

Make each guess work across the puzzle

Early guesses are useful for testing several common consonants and vowels. Once a board has enough clues, solving it can also test letters on the remaining boards. Balance the value of learning new letters against the value of securing an answer you already know.

When guesses become scarce, focus on the boards with the fewest possible answers. Avoid spending the last few turns on speculative words for one board while another board has a clear solution. You do not need to solve the boards in order.

Keep the controls within reach

Use the on-screen keyboard or type on a physical keyboard. Press Enter to submit a five-letter guess and Backspace to remove a letter. The boards scroll inside the play area, so you can inspect another board without moving the keyboard off screen.

On a wide screen, Desktop Mode arranges the boards horizontally. Use the normal layout on a smaller screen. The help button in the game opens illustrated instructions, and Back returns you to the game menu.

Share your result, then try another round

After the puzzle ends, the results panel lets you copy a summary to share. Daily Octordle gives everyone the same daily challenge; Free Octordle is available when you want another puzzle. Returning to an unfinished puzzle in the same browser preserves its saved guesses.
