Word Hurdle is the new name for the game that was previously known as Wordle 2. In this game, players must guess the six-letter word in six or fewer guesses. The rules are similar to Wordle in that players are not given any initial clues as to what the word is and all guesses must be words in the American English language.
When you make a guess, the colours of the tiles will change, indicating whether the letters you guessed are in the answer and whether you correctly placed them in the word. This game’s colours are grey, yellow, and blue, which have most likely been changed to distinguish itself more between Wordle and Word Hurdle.

It looks like this game has moved to a different website and there are new options you can choose to play, with a five-letter and a four-letter variation. There are some other games you can also play on the Solataired website, but this article will be covering the six-letter words as before. We will be covering both the morning and afternoon words in the same article, so make sure you scroll slowly to avoid seeing any spoilers for the afternoon answer.

What is the Word Hurdle #227 (Morning) Answer Today? (May 12th, 2022)
Here is how I managed to solve the answer to Word Hurdle 227 in six guesses today. I guessed the word ‘AUDIOS’ first, as usual, which only showed me that there is an A in the word but it has not been correctly placed.
I then guessed the word ‘PLANER’ as it uses different letters than the ones guessed and it also puts the A in a different position. This was a good guess as it showed me that there is an E and N in the word, none of which have been placed correctly in the word.
I wanted to guess a word that places all the known letters in different positions and has different letters in it. The only word I could think of was the word ‘HANDLE’ and I know this can’t be the answer as I already know there is no D in the answer. This word placed the N in the correct position, but did not reveal any other letters.
‘ENACTS’ was the next word I guessed and this word unfortunately did not place any letters, but it did show me that there is a T in the answer. I then went for the word ‘MENTAL’, which placed the E correctly.
The A must be the fourth letter in the word and I figured that the word probably started with a T. Placing these letters helped me to solve the answer to Word Hurdle 227 in my final guess, which is…
TENANT!

Hint 2: It starts with the letter S.
Hint 3: There are two vowels in the word today.
Hint 4: Used to indicate obligation, duty, or correctness, typically when criticizing someone’s actions.
What is the Word Hurdle #228 (Afternoon) Answer Today? (May 12th, 2022)
Here is how I managed to solve the answer to Word Hurdle 228 today in four guesses. I guessed the word ‘AUDIOS’ first (as per usual), which was a great word to guess today as it showed me that there is a U, D, O and S in the word, none of which have been placed correctly though.
I then guessed the word ‘DOUSER’ as this places all the known letters in a different position. Unfortunately, none of the letters were placed correctly in this word and no new letters were revealed.
It was possible that the O and U are the third and fourth letters in the word and so I guessed the word ‘STOUND’ next. This was a great word to guess as it placed the S, O, U and D all in the correct positions.
This meant that there were only two letters left to guess, the second and fifth letters, and I was then able to solve the answer to Word Hurdle 228 in my next guess, which is…
SHOULD!
