How to play Nerdle
- Enter a valid calculation with eight characters, including an equals sign.
- Read the tiles: green fixes a character in place, purple puts it elsewhere, and grey rules out that occurrence.
- Use both the feedback and normal order of operations to solve the calculation within six attempts.
Making every calculation balance
A calculation must balance
For example, 12+35=47 is eight characters and mathematically valid. An unbalanced expression is not a useful probe: the game requires a valid equation.
Why try Nerdle?
Try it when you want deduction without a vocabulary test. Arithmetic constrains the possibilities, so a promising arrangement must also balance on both sides of the equals sign.
