Command-line Wordle game with optional assistance from your AI pal, Wordly.
Supports normal mode and hard mode.
Type '?' to get a hint from Wordly if you're stuck. Man and machine combine to conquer Wordle.
To play: python main.py.
Hard mode: python main.py --hard
Watch Wordly play: python main.py --ai. AI mode uses a harder word list.
Just as in Wordle, you have six guesses to find a target five-letter word.
In hard mode, information from previous guesses must be used.
Solutions will always be in the top 4000 most common English words. However, any 5-letter word may be used as a guess.
Wordly does not exhaustively search every possible guess and solution. Instead, Wordly considers a few hundred words and picks one that will narrow down the pool of possible answers. This produces good-enough guesses quickly. Wordly will win ~99% of all Wordle games.
Wordly's heuristics are based on these sources.
