Wordle BASIC is a Wordle clone implemented entirely in TI-84+CE BASIC. No external libraries or dependencies are required.
Download and ungroup WORDLE.8xo into RAM to install. Note the size of the group (~60 kb) as this much free RAM is required to play.
Your aim is to guess a hidden 5-letter word in six tries or less, using information about previous guesses to inform your next.
Enter words using the keypad, with DEL to backspace and 2ND/ENTER to submit a guess. If the word is invalid, a red ! will flash.
After submitting a valid guess, the letters of the guess will be colored according to how they align with the secret word. A green letter is in the correct position, an orange letter is correct but not in the right spot, and a grey letter does not appear anywhere.
Orange letters respect the frequency of a letter in the secret word. That is, if there are two or more of the same letter in a guess, the later instances will be colored only if that many letters also appear in the secret word. For example, if the secret word is SCANT and you guess FUNNY, the first N will be grey and the second will be green.
The game tracks how many guesses you take to guess the secret word, as well as your current win streak. To reset your stats, run ClrList |LthetaWD.
