Hasbro and New York Times Games have created a new board game featuring Wordle. The brand new Wordle: The Party Game is inspired by the popular digital version of the game, and it’s ideal for game nights with friends and family. The new board game based on the hit online word game Wordle will be available this fall.
Wordle: The Party Game is the Newest of Board Games
Wordle is a single-player word game. You can make fun of your friends’ intelligence, but it doesn’t change the fact that you are playing alone. However, that will alter when the official Wordle board game is launched in October. The New York Times and Hasbro have collaborated to produce a board game that can be played with others and without a device. This is the classic Wordle, except you use pens and friends to play.
Wordle: The Party Game can be played by two to four people. One person is designated as the “Wordle Host” for each round, and this player writes down a secret word that the other players must attempt to decipher. Like in the original game, players will have six chances to guess the word. The fewer tries a player needs, the fewer points they score. The player with the fewest points at the end of the game wins the game. Hasbro also said it would offer several variants, including the option to beat the clock and team-based word-guessing challenge, alongside the traditional Wordle.
A software engineer Josh Wardle created Wordle, which achieved fame in late 2021 and early 2022. Wordle, which had 90-day users in November, reached 2 million users by January. The Times reported that it had purchased Wordle for ‘a price in the low-seven figures’ on January 31. Following the Wordle acquisition, The Times gained a record number of digital game subscribers in the first quarter, and Wordle attracted tens of millions of additional users to The Times.
