Octordle: Solve 8 Puzzles at once

If Wordle makes you solve one word puzzle, then Octordle multiplies that difficulty by 8 and makes you guess eight secret words at the same time. The game was created by Kenneth Crawford after he was inspired by Dordle (where you need to guess two word puzzles simultaneously) and Quordle (where you guess 4 secret words). It is unclear if Crawford thought Quordle was too easy, but made a version of the game which is incredibly hard.

Just like Wordle, Octordle's basic gameplay is the same. You need to guess eight 5-letter words and you get a total of 13 attempts to figure out the words. You get similar green, yellow and gray highlights on guessing the right position, wrong position and wrong letter, just like Wordle. The entire idea is to simultaneously solve 8 different puzzles where each guess is applied on all of the puzzles. This instantly changes the entire strategy to attack the game.

Additionally, besides daily Octordle, there are practice Octordles too. You can play as many games as you want to improve your skills in that mode. The game is entirely about eliminating as many letters as possible within 5 attempts and then trying to guess the words in remaining chances.
