So, what are today’s Quordle answers for game #214?

I won’t make you wait any longer — here you go:

SPANK
FERRY
KOALA
CROWN

The daily Quordle solutions for game #214 are quite difficult, or so I believe. I failed today’s game, which isn’t unusual, partially because I made some foolish mistakes and partly because of the words themselves. Complications include repeated A in KOALA, repeated R in FERRY, and a slew of other words with similar letter sequences.

Because Quordle is never easy, you’ll need a smart plan to help you solve it. My strategy begins by playing three prepared words to delete or confirm as many common letters as feasible.

Currently, those three words are ORATE, DINGY, and CLUBS, and they have yielded satisfactory results. Today’s outcome, on the other hand, was quite dismal, with four letters in either green or yellow for one puzzle and three for the other three. That still remained a lot of work to be done and pointed to the possibility of repeated letters among the solutions.

I guessed CROWN because I felt there might be one in the bottom right quadrant, but I was wrong, and I had to play CROWN the next time. They didn’t offer me much room for error with the remaining answers, and with only three letters for each of them, I didn’t have much to go on.

A green Y was at the end of the upper right, along with yellow E and R. Despite the fact that there were a few possibilities here, I decided to play something that would make use of unplayed letters that may be found elsewhere. PERKY did a good job at it; even though it was incorrect, it uncovered P and K in the top left response instead, giving me all five letters and directing me to SPANK.

The K was also at the bottom left, where I now had a green A in the centre, as well as yellow L, O, and K. The appropriate response was KOALA.
