Well, this was about as easy as a Quordle ever gets for me. Like, really, really easy.
My strategy involves playing three set start words every day, and though I have experimented with other approaches, it’s by far the most successful I’ve tried. Those three words are STARE, DOILY and PUNCH and today they gave me all five letters for the top-left answer, four for the top- and bottom-right quadrants and three for the bottom left.
The first of those merely needed me to solve an anagram, then – which I did to find DUCHY, possibly the hardest word here simply because it’s not a widely used term. CANNY was the other contender for toughest to solve – it has a repeated N, after all – but there was no other option for me, so it was again rather simple.
SMART was another where the answer was given to me by my start words – I knew it was S-ART and didn’t have any other letters that could fit but the M. So that just left BLOCK. Here I did need a bit of luck, because it also could have been FLOCK, but with only a 50/50 ahead of me there was no point in playing a word to narrow down those options, so I guessed BLOCK and solved it in seven.
