It was only a matter of time before the meteoric rise of Wordle would lead to clones and spin-offs of the game appearing online. The latest one is dedicated to music sensation BTS, all thanks to BTS fan account @btschartdata using the clone project hannahcode.
With its regular chart updates, listening parties, and other features that cater to its 2.2 million Twitter followers, the account is understood to be a prominent part of the BTS fandom.
Now, this brainteaser of a game has overtaken its fandom and is being played by everyone.
There’s only so much the fans can do to pass the time while waiting for the Bangtan Boys to return from their hiatus.
The BTS-themed puzzle follows the same rules as the original Wordle, where players get six attempts to guess a five-letter word connected to the award-winning K-pop group.
Another difference is that the colour orange is used to indicate a letter that exists in the word but is in the wrong place, instead of Wordle’s yellow. @btschartdata decided to maintain grey to show that the letter does not exist at all in the guessed word.
The outcome looks something like this:
The words can range from song titles, to the septet’s names or even other trivia and fun-facts connected to the group. Popular guesses so far have included members Jimin and J-Hope’s names, solo tracks, the group’s mixtape-related work, SoundCloud releases, and more.
Since this expansion of the Wordle craze also only has one secret word per day, players will still need to be cautious of spoilers by shameless citizens on Twitterjaya.
