Experdle is the daily 5-letter word puzzle that turns the colors off. Guess a word. Experdle answers with two numbers only: how many letters are in the right spot, and how many are in the word but in the wrong spot. You never see which tiles those are. Use the counts. Eliminate what cannot fit. Crack today’s words. Two official puzzles each local day, resetting at midnight: Classic and Blitz. Each mode has its own streak. Win and that streak grows. Miss a day or lose, and it starts over. Valid US English words only. HOW TO PLAY Type a five-letter word. Experdle scores it with two counts beside the row: fully correct and partially correct. Hunt down today’s word before you run out of tries — or time. MODES Classic — Ten guesses. One careful daily puzzle. Blitz — Six guesses. Three minutes on the clock. Same feedback. Faster pressure. FEATURES New Classic and Blitz challenges every day • Separate streaks per mode • Digit feedback by default, or classic pill bars in Settings • Highlighter to mark or dim letters • Tutorial so the first puzzle clicks • Practice: two extra games a day that never touch your streak, with unlimited clues • Lifetime stats for Classic and Blitz • Live count of players who solved today’s puzzle, plus your place if you won • Optional clues that reveal one letter • No account • Play offline; streaks sync when you’re back online CLUES (OPTIONAL) Every new player starts with three clues. Spend one to reveal a single letter on Classic or Blitz. Practice has unlimited clues. Extra packs of 5, 10, or 15 are optional in-app purchases. You never need a clue to play either daily. Built for people who already love word games and want a sharper daily ritual. Quick to open. Hard to coast through. Genuinely fun to solve.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Spellt at none against Experdle's 3. Spellt also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Experdle's advantage is review sentiment (94% vs 60%) and update cadence (every 3 days vs monthly). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
