Wordle Answer Today (June 17): Today’s Trickster Will Have You Guessing Till The End

Wordle requires players to correctly guess a five-letter word. After each guess, the game offers clues by colour-coding the letters.

Wordle Answer Today: Tuesday’s Wordle puzzle offered yet another brain-teaser that had many fans scratching their heads till the very last guess. As always, Wordle enthusiasts across the globe logged in to take on the daily linguistic challenge, hoping to crack the code within the allotted six attempts.

For the uninitiated, Wordle requires players to correctly guess a five-letter word. After each guess, the game offers clues by colour-coding the letters: green indicates the correct letter in the correct spot, yellow signals the letter is in the word but in the wrong position, and grey means the letter doesn't appear at all. But sometimes, even these clues aren't enough to prevent frustration.

Subtle clues led players toward today's solution

Today’s puzzle offered a few helpful hints for those struggling to zero in on the word. For starters, the word began with the letter “P” and ended with “K.” Players were also told to “think of a joke,” nudging them in the right direction without giving too much away. With only one vowel in the mix and no repeated letters, the puzzle was both fair and challenging.

To give players a head start, it was suggested that beginning with the word “anker” would light up four yellow tiles, narrowing down the options significantly. Yet, despite these clues, some still found today’s puzzle trickier than expected.
