What is Absurdle?
Absurdle is a twist on Wordle made by the writer and programmer qntm. In Wordle there is one secret word. In Absurdle there isn't: after every guess, the game picks the answer that keeps as many possible words alive as it can, so it actively tries to avoid being found.
To win you have to think strategically and corner it, narrowing the list until only one word is left. There is no daily limit, so you can play as many times as you like, and there are settings and a random guess button.
