The game is both a blessing and a curse
Wordle fanatics have taken to social media to share their discontent when getting “two different answers” during Tuesday’s game.
Wordle has taken the world by storm and consequently was recently snapped up by publishing giant The New York Times – but don’t worry; it shall be free forever.
However since the company bought the rights late last week for an undisclosed seven-figure sum, people have noticed a decrease in the game’s quality.
I have been cheated by this game !!!👀👀👀

During Tuesday’s game (February 15), players realised there were two possible answers, leading to many taking to Twitter. One said: “Same day, different Wordle. Is anyone having a different Wordle of the day too?”
Another questioned: “Uhoh!! My partner and I got two different correct words for #Wordle today. What is happening?”

The two words in question were ‘agora’, which was a public space in ancient Greek city-states, and ‘aroma’, which means smell.
“Waittt? there are two different answers for today’s Wordle and I happened to get the harder one?????? What a p***take,” another wrote – and it can be assumed they guessed agora.
Even after a night’s rest, people are still losing it over the popular Twitter game.

Others simply targeted the publisher: “F**k the NY Times. All my homies hate the NY Times.”

Twitch streamer and comedian Limmy wrote: “Today’s Wordle is shite. No, not the word shite, just a shite word. I don’t think a lot of people are gonnae even know that word. I got it, cos cos I remember somebody mentioning it once years ago. But, shite word.”
“NO SPOILERS OR BLOCK!” he added.
However no matter how frustrating the game gets, just remember, Wordle saves lives.
