The new board game, according to NYT, could be one of the best ways to spend time with your friends or family. It will be an offline version of Wordle’s gameplay but with extra frills. As shared by NYT, Wordle: The Party Game will have multiple rounds and in each of them, a player will be designated as the Wordle host who will write down a Secret Word and other players have to guess the word. The rules of this game will be similar to the digital one which means players will have to guess a five-letter word, in as many as six attempts. “The fewer attempts a player needs, the fewer points they score.” The player with the fewest score will become the winner of the game.
Wordle: The Party Game will be available in North America and Canada in October 2022. However, the pre-order has already started for $19.99. According to the game’s website, it will ship on October 1.
