After letters, make way for numbers with Nerdle, and its puzzles for math lovers.
In recent weeks, many Internet users have been inflamed by the phenomenon wordle, a free online game, allowing players to solve a unique language puzzle daily. After its huge success on social networks, a takeover by the prestigious New York Times and many copycats on smartphone app stores, the game finally finds its successor.
The same, but with numbers
Don’t expect a lot of originality in Nerdle : largely surfing on the success of wordle, the game offers exactly the same gameplay: an eight-character daily mystery equationand six attempts to decipher it, on the principle of mastermind, which will indicate on each attempt if certain digits are correctly positioned, or if, on the contrary, some must be moved.
Obviously, the game suffers from a few weaknesses compared to its model: there are no longer 26, but only 15 possibilities available to you for each box. Also, the order of the equation remains static, which means that 10 + 20 = 30 will not be considered correct if the correct answer is 20 + 10 = 30. However, Nerdle has the merit of very quickly becoming addictive.
more accessible than wordle for non-English speakers, Nerdle already promises to experience the same success as its predecessor. Especially since if the enigma may seem simpler, each proposition can only be validated if it is mathematically correct. Accessible for free from a web browser, we advise you to enjoy the game as long as it is still available for free. You are never safe from success: since its acquisition by the New York Times, Wordle has become profitable, to the great misfortune of players around the world who have made it their daily routine.
