New Game by the Creator of Wordle

Josh Wardle, the creator of Wordle, is back with a new game called Parseword. (Thank you, Austin, for the heads up!) It’s a single clue of a cryptic crossword, but a lot less frustration because hints abound. This game would be a great way to get good at cryptic crosswords because it helps you see the wordplay used to set up those clues.

Take your time moving through the robust tutorial. It removes all the frustration of getting into a new game. I like this game because you can start it, walk away, think about it, and come back. I’m not a fan of games with timers. I like to enjoy the experience and not rush through things.

Make sure you explore the “references” button in the top right corner if you get stuck.

Enjoy!
