Wordle Duel lets you set a custom 5-letter word and send a challenge link to a friend. They get 6 guesses to crack your word, with the same green/yellow/gray color feedback as standard Wordle. Everything happens client-side so there is no server involved and no signup required.

Setting a good challenge word takes a bit of thought. Common short words are usually cracked in 3 or 4 guesses. Words with repeated letters, rare letters, or unusual vowel patterns are harder. Words ending in -Y or starting with an uncommon letter tend to trip up opponents because they eliminate fewer common opening words.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the challenge link work?

Your chosen word is encoded in the URL itself. Share the link with your friend and it loads the Wordle board pre-configured for your word. No server or account needed.

Can the friend see the word in the URL?

The word is encoded, not plainly visible in the link, so your friend cannot easily cheat by reading the URL.

What words are valid challenges?

Any standard 5-letter English word can be used as a challenge word. Uncommon words make harder challenges but the guesser needs to be able to eventually find it.

Can I see my friend's guesses?

Not in real time. After they finish, they can share their result grid with you to compare.
