First, you need to know that Pinyin is a term used to refer to the spelling system of Chinese from its original form of Chinese characters into the romanized form so that people from other countries can read the Chinese word.
Pinyindle is a name that expresses its origin—the Wordle game. This word-guessing game challenges players with a hidden English word. Inspired by this world-famous title, Pinyindle is also a word-guessing game.
But instead of the normal English word, this variant involves players in finding a Chinese word in the form of a Pinyin rule.
By that, we mean you will have to guess a Chinese word by filling in Latinate letters that indicate the Romanized form of the word.
The Pinyindle game consists of a blank grid for players to fill in their word guesses. Like the Wordle game, this version also hides a five-letter word for players to reveal. No matter how long the original Chinese word is, its Pinyin form must contain 5 Latinate letters to be counted as a valid guess.
You will have six tries to determine what the missing word is. Don't rush to find the secret word by making mistakes because the game doesn't count down your time. Detailedly, a Pinyindle daily game can last up to 24 hours before resetting with a new one, so you literally have the whole day to finish the puzzle.
In-game support will be displayed in the form of three different colors: green, yellow, and dark gray.
Congratulations if you pick a word full of green letters, it means you win the game. Green letters in a guessed word are also the one in the same positions of the hidden word.
On the contrary, it's a pity if the letters turn dark gray. The dark gray color indicates that letters are not included in the hidden word in the Pinyindle game.
The last hint is the yellow color. When letters turn yellow, it means that the letters are also parts of the hidden word. However, these letters will stay in another position in the correct solution word. Therefore, try to change the position of the yellow letters in your next guesses.
