The answers to today's Quordle, game #833, are…

  • STAIN
  • GENIE
  • LEVEL
  • RELAY

A much easier Quordle today than yesterday – for me at least. I always say that, because the way you play may be very different from the way I do. But today, my three start words gave me the majority of the letters I needed, and made most of the quadrants easy to solve.

Case in point: STAIN, for which I already had three green letters and two yellows. RELAY, where I had four yellows and one green, was not much harder. By the time I reached GENIE I already had the letters -ENIE – so no, that one did not challenge me too much. And that just left LEVEL, which I could hardly get wrong by that point.

If only they were all so simple, eh?
