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.
In contrast to Wordle though, there are two words released daily in Word Hurdle, one at midnight and the other at midday. Both answers are covered in the same article, so scroll slowly to avoid seeing any spoilers for the afternoon word!

What is the Word Hurdle #167 (Morning) Answer Today? (April 12th, 2022)
Here is how I managed to solve the answer to Word Hurdle 167 today. I guessed the word ‘AUDIOS’ first (as per usual), which was a relatively good guess as it placed the O in the correct position as well as showing me there is an A and S in the word. I then guessed the word ‘CASTOR’ as it places the known letters in a different place as well as all the other letters being ones I have not guessed yet.
Unfortunately this did not reveal any other letters in the word, nor place the other letters in the correct place. I then guessed the word ‘PLEASE’ to see id there were any E’s in the word and this word did show me there is an E.
Looking at the letters I knew, I decided to try a word, which just so happened to be the answer for Word Hurdle 167, which is…
SEASON!

What is the Word Hurdle #168 (Afternoon) Answer Today? (April 12th, 2022)
Here is how I managed to solve the answer to Word Hurdle 168 in three guesses today. First, I guessed the word ‘AUDIOS’, which placed the O in the correct spot and showed me there is an S in the word. I then guessed the word ‘COMBOS’ just to see if I could reveal any other letters in the word and see is a double O.
This was a great guess ad it placed the M and B in the correct positions. I figured the word could start with an S, but I then had to think about what word begins with an S and has MBO in the current position. The word ends in either an N, L or T and I was originally thinking there could be an E as the second letter. After some thinking, I did manage to get the answer to Word Hurdle 168 in my next guess, which is…
SYMBOL!
