  • JUDGE
  • GIVER
  • GNASH
  • CLOAK

Hi, Johnny here, taking over Quordle duties from Marc (who'll still be looking after the daily Wordle today page, if you also play that game).

This is my first attempt at Quordle in a while and I’m not too displeased that I actually got there, but it was a struggle — even after I nailed my first word fairly quickly. For the newcomer, it’s multi-brained, plate-spinning stuff for sure.

In my defense, GNASH is not the first word that springs to mind, but once I’d deduced that the first two letters were GN, there were no other possibilities. A gnarly one for sure.

How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.
