Here are our hints and the answers for Quordle 1488, the four-word puzzle released today, on 20th February 2026.
Quordle has become a huge success after being released as a prototype with a number of bugs and usability issues at the end of January. It has now been taken over by Merriam-Webster.
It is the most popular daily word game outside of Wordle due to the increased level of difficulty. Players must guess four five-letter words in as few as nine attempts, rather than guessing one word.
If you’re new to the game, you can practice in the dedicated practice mode, which provides players with an unlimited number of Quordle word puzzles, none of which count towards a user’s overall stats, including the win streak.
Every day at midnight, the daily game mode gives players a new set of words for the Quordle puzzle.
Completing the daily mode puzzle will add to a user’s stats, including their win streak if all four words are correctly guessed.

Some of the daily Quordle words can be difficult to guess correctly within the allotted number of guesses. As a result, we’ve been providing our own hints alongside the answer for the past few months.
If you’re struggling with the answers for all the Quordle puzzles released on 20th February, you can see them below with some hints to help you.
