Since its launch in October 2021, Wordle has quickly become the go-to game for hundreds of thousands of avid players around the world.
The daily word game gives players six attempts to guess a five-letter word.
After each guess, feedback is given in the form of colored tiles.
Green indicates that a letter is correct and in the correct position, while yellow indicates that a letter is correct but in the wrong position.
It proved so popular that the New York Times announced it had purchased Wordle in 2022 for an undisclosed seven-figure sum.
Although many loyal players still play Wordle every day, the game suffered a glitch this morning, with the first reports coming in shortly after 00:00 GMT.
