Thirdle is a daily word puzzle that asks you to solve a compact three-word crossword. Each game presents three interlocking words and you enter full-word guesses; the interface starts with two letters already revealed. After each guess, letters change color to indicate correctness and placement, helping you deduce the linked answers within the allowed attempts.

The game uses a familiar feedback system extended across three words: green means a correct letter in the correct position, orange means a correct letter in the correct word but wrong position, purple means the letter belongs in one of the other two words, and black means the letter does not appear in any of the words. Thirdle offers multiple modes including the normal daily puzzle and an unlimited mode for endless play.

How to play Thirdle

  1. How to play Thirdle: start the daily puzzle and view the mini crossword with two letters already filled in.
  2. Type a valid full word guess for the row you are solving and submit it to receive color-coded feedback for each letter.
  3. Use the colored hints to infer which letters belong to which of the three words and their correct positions.
  4. Repeat entering guesses to solve all three interlocking words within six attempts to complete the puzzle.

Tips for Thirdle

  • Start by using words that cover common vowels and consonants to maximize early information from the two prefilled letters.
  • When you see a purple letter, try moving that letter into the intersecting words in subsequent guesses to determine its correct location.
  • Use orange feedback to recombine letters within the same word rather than discarding them, since orange means the letter is in the correct word but mispositioned.
  • Work from the intersections outward: resolving a shared letter between words can quickly reduce possibilities for both entries.
