Spoiler-safe score puzzle
Today’s Word500 for August 23, 2026 has three daily modes. Open one mode, reveal a letter, or show the full answer when you are ready.
Score smarter
Word500 is less about one lucky opener and more about reading score changes. Compare each guess against the last one and use the difficulty rules to narrow the word.
Standard avoids repeat letters and the hardest letters. Standard+ keeps no-repeat words, while Advanced can use anything.
A high score means some letters are either correct or close. Compare scores across guesses instead of treating every guess like plain Wordle feedback.
If you are close, one confirmed letter is usually enough to finish without spoiling the whole answer.
In Standard and Standard+ mode, the answer has no repeated letters. Use that rule to keep guesses efficient.
