However, unlike the original Wordle game that requires players to guess one secret word in a game, the Thirtle game will challenge players with 30 secret words. Literally, you can consider playing a Thirtle game, like taking 30 Wordle games simultaneously.

Therefore, with 30 rounds, the game allows players to have 180 guesses. Yet, you must complete every single round without losing any of them to win all the games.
