6-letter mode plays exactly like standard Wordle — six guesses, green/yellow/gray feedback — but the hidden word is always six letters long. That one extra letter meaningfully increases the number of valid words and letter combinations, so guesses that would have nailed a 5-letter puzzle often only narrow things down here.
New to the rules themselves? Start with How to Play Wordle, then come back — everything there applies to this mode too.
Longer words tend to include more common suffixes and letter pairs (like -ER, -ED, -ING roots shortened, or double letters), which changes which openers are actually useful. Words like GARDEN, PLANET, or MASTER work well as openers because they spread out common consonants across six distinct positions instead of clustering them. For more on how strategy shifts between word lengths, read 5-Letter vs 6-Letter Wordle.
If six letters feels like too much at first, switch to 5-letter mode using the toggle above — your stats and streak carry over between both modes.
The Wordle Helper works for both word lengths — filter the 6-letter list by what you already know.
