For lovers of Wordle, may I introduce you to “Heardle”…
This kinda new game is a variant created by Omakase specifically for music fans. Much like the original game, Heardle players must guess song titles to complete the game.
“Listen to the intro, then find the correct artist & title in the list,” the instructions read. “Answer in as few tries as possible and share your score!”
Brilliant.
Mother fvcking genius.
Take one trend and just lay it out across everything.
Can we get Huddle? Guess sports-related things.
Can we get Chople? Cooking… I guess.
Perhaps, a revolutionary game of Comicle? No, not comical, like funny… Comicle… where everything is related to comic books and spin out franchises.
The Worldle is Your Oysterle.
The song sample will gradually extend over the number of unsuccessful attempts, but if you can’t guess quickly you can skip through the sounds until you think you know the answer.
Each song is “plucked from a list of the most-streamed songs in the past decade,” according to the game’s website.
