Wordle Goes From App To Party Game This October

July 18, 2022 by fcostin

Have you been spending your mornings relaxing to a cheeky game of wordplay of a morning? Alike Ben, I like to test my brain with a game of Wordle on my phone here and there. I'd be challenging myself on a new puzzle a day, to guess one word out of a selection of letters in a matter of six attempts.

If you think you would rather take your head away from your phone and create a social game out of Wordle, you will be able to by October this year. As Hasbro has approached New York Times to turn the viral free-to-play app into a board game, bringing a social aspect out of wordplay in an upcoming party game.

The upcoming Wordle Party Game can be played with up to four players, but the rules have been slightly tweaked to account for the new fancy physical format. Although keeping to the same theme of guessing the word, there will need to be one player designated as the host to pick the word. Competing against one another, being awarded green and yellow tiles for the correct layout, stacking up points depending on how many attempts it has taken to find the word.

Alike the digital game, players are aiming to get the word in as few attempts as they can. Therefore the winner will be the person with the least amount of points. Alike many other party games, the game will come with whiteboards which will allow anybody to replay with ease, without throwing lots of different resources away each time it comes out of the box! The game also comes with different ways to play, so whether you want to team up or time trial.

As this is an American release by New York Times, if you are over in the states, you can get your pre-orders over on Amazon and Target for $19.99. However, if you are in the UK or the rest of the world, given the fact that it is Hasbro - hopefully, we'll be seeing the adaptations over shores.

Were you ever addicted to Wordle? And would give the party game title a go?
