Word puzzle games have since inspired tons of games like Wordle, refocusing daily gimmicks around music and math and geography. It wasn't that long before Wordle became so popular that it was sold to the New York Times for 7 figures. Indeed, it is only a matter of time before all of us communicate only in the tricolor box.
