Practical guide
Use every color clue without over-filtering
The solver combines exact green positions, required yellow letters, and gray-letter limits. It supports four- through eight-letter puzzles, so set the length before entering clues from the board.
How to use this tool
- Choose the puzzle length. The green row changes to match four, five, six, seven, or eight letters.
- Enter confirmed clues. Put each green letter in its exact box, type yellow letters in the included field, and add ruled-out letters to gray.
- Update after each guess. Replace old assumptions with the latest color information, then compare the remaining common candidates.
Worked example
- Input
5 letters; green A in position 2; yellow E; gray RST- Result
- Every result has A second, contains E somewhere, and stays within the gray-letter limits.
The tool does not decide which remaining word is best automatically. Choose a guess that tests useful new letters while respecting the confirmed clues.
When it is useful
- A color-clue word puzzle has left too many plausible answers to scan mentally.
- Repeated letters make it difficult to interpret a mixed yellow and gray result.
- You are solving a Wordle-style puzzle with a nonstandard word length.
Puzzle-solving tips
- Do not put a yellow letter into a green box unless its exact position is confirmed.
- Use a candidate with several untested common letters when many answers remain.
- For repeated letters, enter the number of confirmed green and yellow copies. A gray copy can cap extra occurrences of the same letter.
How WordTorch finds the results
Green entries lock letters to specific positions. Yellow entries set the minimum number of copies that must occur somewhere in the word, and gray entries normally exclude a letter.
When a letter appears as both confirmed and gray, WordTorch keeps the confirmed number of copies while preventing extra copies. This handles clues where one copy is colored and another copy is gray.
Common Words vs All Words
Common Words prioritizes recognizable guesses and is usually the clearest place to start.
All Words includes a wider set of valid-looking words that may be useful for uncommon answer lists.
Word games maintain their own answer and allowed-guess lists. WordTorch narrows candidates from its local dictionaries but cannot guarantee a particular game's acceptance.
Questions about this tool
How do repeated yellow letters work?
Enter the letter as many times as the clues confirm. Two yellow Es require at least two Es in every result.
Can I record the wrong position of a yellow letter?
The current yellow field records inclusion, not its previous position. Use the results as a shortlist and avoid the known wrong position when choosing your next guess.
Why are there no matches?
A gray letter may conflict with a green or yellow count, or a green may be in the wrong box. Clear the least certain clue and recheck the board.
