Wordle is a simple game in theory but sometimes a very difficult game in practice, and today's puzzle rams that point home with force.
According to WordleBot, the game's helpful (albeit snarky) AI tool, puzzle #1,426 has an average score of 5.5 from the 40,000-plus people who have used it so far today. By that measure it's the hardest Wordle puzzle since January and the fifth hardest of all time.
