The answers to today's Quordle, game #853, are…

  • BRINK
  • ALLEY
  • FENCE
  • GUILT

Phew! I made two stupid mistakes today that very nearly cost me my Quordle streak. Worse still, the two mistakes were essentially one mistake repeated in double-quick time. 

I'm usually a sensible player: I use set start words to narrow down the options, and play further narrowing-words as needed. That's what I should have done today with GUILT; I had green -UIL- plus a yellow T that I could see would fit at the end. Rather than take even two seconds to think about it, I played QUILT… and it was wrong. What an idiot, I thought – it must be BUILT… and it was wrong. Obviously the answer was GUILT, and what I should have done was to play a word such as BEFOG, which would have told me which of the three it was and saved me a guess.

With GUILT solved I now had only three guesses left and three answers to find. It was a little hairy at times, but I managed to come up with the remaining words and escape with a last-gasp victory.
