"Today's Hurdle" offers a more challenging experience compared to Wordle by requiring players to solve a series of words sequentially, with the final word needing to be completed in just two attempts instead of five. Unlike Wordle, which indicates correct letters, Hurdle only reveals the number of correct letters, adding an extra layer of difficulty. This format creates a blend of Wordle and Mastermind, appealing to those seeking a more complex puzzle-solving experience. The game has been described as more confusing and demanding, catering to players who find Wordle too easy.

Wordle tells you which letters are correct, whereas Hurdle tells you how many letters are correct, but not which ones.
 
Wordle requires you to solve one word in 5 lines.

Today's Hurdle requires a sequence of incremental solutions, each building on the previous one,
and the final word must be solved in only 2, not 5.
 
Seems more confusing than Wordle certainly. Reminds me of a schizoid mix of Wordle and Mastermind.

To some degree, this thread is inspired by PF user erobz's thread "Why do we spend so much time learning grammar in the public school system?" That's why I made a title to this thread that paralleled the title of erobz's thread. I totally disagree with erobz. I created this thread because the curriculum of grammar at Universities is a totally distinct topic from the topic of the curriculum of grammar in public schools. I have noticed that the English grammar of many ( perhaps most)...
