Quordle today (game #858) - the answers
The answers to today's Quordle, game #858, are…
- BRAWN
- CINCH
- WHOSE
- GUESS
There are two ways to solve a word like CINCH, which has several potential solutions. One is to play a throwaway word designed to identify the correct starting letter, and that's what I usually do. However, it can be hard to guarantee a solve that way; -INCH has four possible solutions, WINCH, PINCH, FINCH and CINCH, and you might have needed more than one guess to uncover the missing letter, then a third to play the answer. I can't think of a word that contains three letters out of W, P, F and C, at least.
Instead, I took the other route: leave it until the end and hope that one or more of those letters gets ruled out during the game. That worked for me today, because I realized the bottom left answer had to be WHOSE, then when the W in the top right didn't turn green I knew it couldn't be WINCH. P was already ruled out, so I had a 50/50 between FINCH and CINCH and although I got the first attempt wrong, I was still able to solve this Quordle with one guess remaining.
