One reason for Wordle’s enduring popularity is the sense of community it creates among players.

The daily word game, owned by The New York Times, also helps foster a sense of achievement and its straightforward rules make it fun to play, according to linguistics expert and Babbel Live teacher Noël Wolf

“Wordle’s shareability across various social media platforms fosters a sense of belonging and common ground that can transcend cultures and borders. Friends and family members who live far apart, or even in different countries, can use it to stay connected,” Wolf told Newsweek in October.

The word puzzle also sparks “daily conversations” among players and “offers a daily break from our high-paced lives,” she added.

“The small victories that Wordle provides may also contribute to a feeling of achievement over time. Wordle keeps things simple and interactive, allowing users to learn almost without realizing it,” Wolf said.
