Worldle is similar to Wordle but for geography nerds.
Where Wordle gets you to guess a five letter word, Worldle gives you an image of a country or territory on a map and guides you to guess correctly by telling you the distance and direction from your last guess in six tries.
The game was created by a French web designer who enjoyed playing the original Wordle.
Similar to its predecessor, Worldle has found success with half a million people playing it.
Wordle, the game that started it all, has also inspired many other spin-offs including Nerdle where you guess a math calculation, Sweardle where you guess a swear word and Lordle of the Rings where you guess a word associated with Lord of the Rings franchise.
Geography nerds, Worldle can be played at https://worldle.teuteuf.fr/
