What is Wordle LOTR?

Every round, the game selects a random word from a curated Middle-earth dictionary that spans the First Age through the Third Age — from legendary weapons like Aeglos to divine beings like the Ainur, rivers, kingdoms, hobbits, and more. You type a guess, and each letter in your answer is highlighted:
  • 🟩 Green — correct letter, correct position
  • 🟨 Yellow — correct letter, wrong position
  • Gray — letter not in the word
Two lore-based hints are always visible to help you narrow down the answer. After three failed attempts, you can reveal the answer and try a new word.
