From the editor’s desk

A puzzle for your kind of day.

Three ways into the collection. These are editorial suggestions, not popularity rankings or measured difficulty scores.

The easy place to start

Start with a familiar format, then change the kind of thinking. There is no need to finish all three in one sitting.

Recognise an outline in Worldle, then use proximity clues in Globle. One tests visual recognition; the other asks you to reason about neighbours.

Waffle gives you the letters, Quordle asks you to manage four answers, and Semantle makes you follow meaning instead of spelling.
