Hints, Clues, and Answer for Wordle #486 on October 18, 2022

Wordle is the daily word puzzle game that gives players a new 5 letter word to figure out every single day! When you enter an incorrect word, the game will tell which parts of the word you enter are part of the answer. If the box of a letter is turned gray after you enter your answer, it means that letter is not in the word at all. If the box turns yellow, the letter in that box is present within the word but is in the wrong spot, and if the letter’s box becomes green, that means both the letter and its placement is correct for the word.

While not having its own standalone app, you can play Wordle with the New York Times Crossword app along with many other word-based puzzles as well as on the official NYT Wordle browser page, linked here.
