Quordle today – hints and answers for Friday, June 21 (game #879)

Quordle on a smartphone held in a hand.

Another day, another Quordle to solve. Or rather four, because Quordle challenges you to play four Wordle-style grids simultaneously. Or maybe it's eight – because there's also the Daily Sequence variant to play too. Either way, you may want some hints for it.

The answers to today's Quordle, game #879, are…

  • INDEX
  • CLUED
  • ORBIT
  • LOSER

Here's another relatively tricky Quordle – but then when aren't they? The X in index definitely makes that answer harder, while ORBIT had an uncommon format with an O at the start and B in the middle that might have made that one difficult to find too. Much will have depended on your strategy, if you have one; mine gave me all five letters for two of the quadrants, and four for the other two, so I was on my way quickly.
