• WordHex is a word guessing game. It's deceptively simple and very addictive. • Removed more words from the answer candidates: • Words ending in -ing (e.g., "AGING", "GOING", "DOING") • Words ending in -ed (e.g., "BORED", "TIRED", "MIXED") • Words ending in -er when it's a comparative form (e.g., "WIDER", "NEWER") • Words ending in -est (e.g., "WORST") • Words ending in -s that are plural forms (e.g., "GOODS") • Past tense irregular verbs (e.g., "WROTE", "SPOKE")

A++ Wordle Clone

Pay once, play forever. Supports dynamic type! Hard mode is really hard. Love it.

I quite enjoy this game

Simple to the point, no ads and smooth. I’ve just updated so I haven’t played the updated version yet, but I expect it’s going to also be good. I would like to see where we could change the length of the words to more or less letters… If that’s been done I’ll update my review… If that was previously in the game, I’ve just overlooked it LOL

Needs Better Colour Contrast

The app needs better colour contrast to distinguish between green (letter in correct place) and chosen letters that are not in the word

Better than Wordle

I really enjoy this more than Wordle. Being able to swap out individual letters instead of retyping an entire word is a GAME CHANGER. I do multiple words daily. I have also unlocked the Pro and use an occasional hint and have no ads.

Get this app Wordle fans….it's way better.

Poor database

I see a lot of four letter words simply with S on the end, which in my opinion is a rather poor core to an otherwise shiny app.

FAQ

What is WordHex?

WordHex is a word guessing game where the objective is to discover a secret five-letter word within six attempts. Each guess must be a valid five-letter word, and the game provides color-coded feedback to indicate the correctness of your letters and their positions.

How does the color-coded feedback work?

The game uses a hexagon system for feedback. A green hexagon means the letter is in the correct spot. A purple hexagon indicates the letter is in the secret word but in the wrong position. A gray hexagon signifies that the letter is not present in the secret word at all.

What are the benefits of upgrading to Pro?

Upgrading to the Pro version unlocks several benefits, including full Apple Watch support for playing the game on your wrist, unlimited hints to help you solve the word, and the ability to reveal the secret word at the end of each game.

Is this game available on Apple Watch?

Yes, Apple Watch support has been newly added to the game. This allows you to play the word guessing challenges directly from your Apple Watch, offering a convenient way to enjoy the game on the go.

What are the typical use cases for this app?

This app is ideal for quick brain-training sessions, passing time during commutes, or engaging in a fun and challenging word puzzle. It's perfect for individuals who enjoy word games and are looking for a mentally stimulating experience.
