How to solve Hurdle

Solve round one in six guesses. Its answer appears as the opening guess of round two, and so on through round four. In the final Hurdle, your four answers are already on the board, coloured against the final word, and you get two guesses to finish.

Hurdle tips for tomorrow

  • Treat each round as hard mode. The seeded guess is fixed, so build on its colours rather than starting fresh.
  • Note letters the final word rejects. In round five, grey letters across four pre-filled rows eliminate most of the alphabet.
  • Keep the hints. Arkadium publishes a one-line hint per round. Use it before revealing the answer.
