EDITOR'S NOTE: This article is for Wordle answer #254; the March 1st Wordle answer is available now.

February 28th’s Wordle answer was not too tricky to guess if players used strategic starting words. However, if players are lost, some hints might help players guess the correct answer for Wordle 254. The vocabulary puzzle game offers players visual clues whenever they enter a letter that is being used in an answer. Players have six attempts to guess the correct answer, which can be challenging if they don’t know where to start. 

The game offers players visual cues, which makes understanding Wordle’s rules easier. For example, if a box containing a letter turns yellow, it means the letter is being used in today’s Wordle answer but is not in the right spot. If a box’s color changes to green, it means the letter within that box is being used in today’s Wordle answer and is in the right spot. If the color remains grey, that means that particular letter is not being used anywhere in today’s answer.
