Worldle gives you one country silhouette every day and six guesses to figure out which country it is. After each guess you get a distance in kilometres, a compass arrow pointing toward the answer, and a proximity percentage, so even a wrong guess teaches you something. Everyone on the planet gets the same shape, which means you can compare scores with friends across time zones. No account, no download, no ads - just open the page and play.
Look at the dark outline on screen and type a country name into the search box. Hit Enter and you'll immediately see three things: how far your guess is from the target (in km), an arrow showing which direction to look, and a percentage that climbs toward 100% as you get warmer. The trick is combining all three - distance tells you how far to jump, the arrow tells you which way, and proximity confirms you're on track. Six guesses is plenty once you get the hang of it.
Start by noticing coastlines. Peninsulas, bays, and island chains narrow things down faster than anything else. If you're totally lost, throw a guess at a big central country - India, Nigeria, Germany - and use the clue combo to triangulate from there. Once the proximity bar passes 80%, you're usually one border away from the answer. Give yourself a couple of weeks and you'll surprise yourself with how many shapes you recognise cold.
A fresh country drops every day at midnight UTC - same silhouette for everyone. Your streak counter ticks up each consecutive day you play, which turns out to be a surprisingly effective motivator. Hit Share when you're done and the game creates a spoiler-free image card you can drop into group chats or social feeds.
