Wordle is sweeping the world and more - This Geek in Review for 2022-01-21

If you haven’t heard about Wordle then I’m very impressed that you found this and are actually reading it! The gameplay of Wordle is much like the game Mastermind. Your are given 6 tries to guess a 5 letter word. When you try a word, any letters that are in the solution and in the right place are labeled green. Letters in the solution but in the wrong place are yellow, while letters that aren’t in the solution are grey.

It’s a pretty fun game on its own, and it’s awesome when someone decides to looks behind the curtain. Next up would be to come up with a list of optimum starting words. I wonder if you could look at the word list and come up with a word that would help you out a majority of the time?

My favorite musician this week

I don’t share out new artists that I find very often, but Games We Play is awesome. Their I hope you’re happy is a banger, the last time a song hooked me this quickly was Walk Two Moon’s Shut up and dance. They sound a lot like the late 90s early 00s alternative rock, or, at the time, indie rock. Go give them a listen!
