In a year of seismic change, there has been one constant: Wordle. The defining game of the year for many, and a cultural behemoth, 2022 would not have been the same without it. From its humble beginnings as a sweet gift from a software engineer to his partner, to a global success story, Wordle has been on quite the journey.
The same is true for the players that have followed the game throughout its popularity, returning each day to test themselves with the word-based challenge. Equal parts fun and frustrating - especially when you see the game's squares pop up on Twitter and know everyone beat you to the answer - the challenge is not for the fainthearted.
