Guess the five-letter word in six tries using alphabetical order clues.

Playlin'sGuide

Wordspan is a daily word puzzle where you guess a five-letter word using clues based on each letter’s position in the alphabet.

Each guess compares your letters to the answer:

  • < means your letter comes before the correct letter alphabetically.
  • > means your letter comes after the correct letter alphabetically.
  • = means the letter is exactly right.
  • Green letters are correct and lock into place.
  • Vowels are outlined in blue to help you spot useful patterns.

You have six attempts to solve the word. Use each alphabet clue to narrow the range until all five letters turn green.


Why we like it:

  • βœ…A clever twist on Wordle that feels more like deduction than guessing.
  • βœ…Alphabet clues make every miss useful.
  • βœ…The vowel outlines add just enough extra strategy without overcomplicating it.

Hint: Treat each position like a shrinking alphabet range. If one guess says your letter is too early and another says it’s too late, the answer is hiding between them.

Playlin's Guide is based on our experience and details from the creator’s official site.
