World of Word Games


Word games have long had a quiet corner of the puzzle world, but in the last few years, they’ve exploded into a global phenomenon — and much of that momentum can be traced back to a single, simple game: Wordle.

From Obscurity to Obsession

Created by software engineer Josh Wardle in 2021 and later acquired by The New York Times, Wordle took the internet by storm with its once-a-day, five-letter puzzle mechanic. With its shareable colored grids and universal access, it struck a chord with players looking for a quick, satisfying daily challenge.

Its success triggered a cascade of imitators and innovators — from Spelling Bee and Connections, to quirky spins like Heardle (music), Framed (movies), and Worldle (geography). The New York Times itself has become a kind of word-game hub, embracing and expanding its digital puzzle offerings with millions of players returning daily.

Why Now?

In a world increasingly filled with scrolling and streaming, Wordle and its kin offer something different: brevity, clarity, and focus. They don’t ask for hours of your time — just a few thoughtful minutes. They’re easy to learn, hard to master, and deeply satisfying to share. More than games, they’ve become rituals — little islands of concentration and delight.
