How Classic Octordle works
Classic gives you eight five-letter boards and 13 guesses. Each guess is submitted to all eight boards at once, so a word can reveal useful letters on several boards even when it is not the answer to any one of them.
- Teal: The letter is in the correct position in that board’s answer.
- Yellow: The letter appears in that board’s answer, but in another position.
- Gray: The letter does not appear in that board’s answer.
The official Octordle FAQ says each day’s puzzle begins at midnight UTC and players on that date receive the same eight words. Earlier puzzles can be replayed in the official archive.

| Sequence | Shows one unsolved board at a time and allows 15 guesses. |
| Rescue | Provides four starter words and leaves nine guesses. |
| Daily Chill and Daily Extreme | Separate daily modes with their own answer sets. |
