Quordle today (game #957) – the answers
The answers to today’s Quordle, game #957, are…
Today’s Quordle is packed with tricky words. BUNCH is a bit of a nightmare for a Wordle-style word game, on account of there being so many similarly spelled options: PUNCH, HUNCH, LUNCH, MUNCH and BUNCH itself, meaning you may have needed to play a narrowing-down word in order to identify the correct one. That’s what I had to do, with HIMBO (sorry, but it was accepted!) being my choice; this gave me the B I needed.
But that aside, TILDE was tricky simply by virtue of being an uncommon word, and LASSO on account of having a repeated letter and also just being spelled wrongly. Go on, say it – it should be spelled LASOO, surely? Or maybe that’s just me. Anyway, I got there in the end, but it was a struggle all the way.
