The New York Times is letting you create your own Wordle puzzles

The Games section is one of the highlights of reading The New York Times, and Wordle has been one of the crowning successes for the team since acquiring it in 2022. Now, fans of the popular word game can create their own custom puzzles. The publication announced today that its All Access and Games subscribers have the option to make World challenges of their own to send to friends and family. 

The custom puzzles must be four to seven letters long, and the creator can opt to include a clue. The puzzle will get a custom URL for sharing, and a subscription isn’t required for people to play an original Wordle challenge. Wordle creation is available on the Times’ mobile apps for both iOS and Android as well as in mobile web and desktop browsers. It’s a fun idea and a cute way for follow word nerds to entertain (and possibly torment) each other.
