  1. You can play Wordle on the New York Times Games site. There are no apps — so if you see something claiming to be one, it's a fake. It was originally hosted on the Wordle website designed by creator Josh Wardle, but moved when the NYT bought Wordle in early February.

    The game was purchased by The New York Times Company in January 2022 for an undisclosed seven-figure sum; the game was moved to the Times website in February 2022 and remains free for all players.

    Wordle, a popular word game, was purchased by The New York Times on Monday. In less than six months, Wordle has gone from a gift to a viral sensation, to being an official part of The New York Times portfolio.
    The purchase, announced by The Times on Monday, reflects the growing importance of games, like crosswords and Spelling Bee, in the company’s quest to increase digital subscriptions to 10 million by 2025. Wordle was acquired from its creator, Josh Wardle, a software engineer in Brooklyn, for a price “in the low seven figures,” The Times said.
    Wordle will “initially remain free to new and existing players” once it moves over to the Times’ site, and Wardle says that he’s working with The New York Times to preserve players’ existing wins and streak data once the game heads to its new home.
    The game didn’t even have an app. When people searched for Wordle where apps are sold, they found one created by someone else, Steve Cravotta, who had used the name for a different game. When Cravaotta noticed the spike in purchases, rather than pocketing the money, he offered it to Wardle, who didn’t feel right about taking it either.
