Think Wordle is too easy? It's time to test your vocabulary against the Hurdle.

Mastering the Chained Difficulty of Hurdle

The defining mechanic of Hurdle is the 'carry-over' system. When you solve a round, that correct answer becomes your first guess for the subsequent hurdle. This creates a strategic dilemma: a word rich in common vowels like 'AUDIO' might be a great opener, but if your previous answer was 'LYMPH', you start the next round with limited data. For the final hurdle, the game aggregates all previous correct and misplaced letters to help you cross the finish line.
