How Hurdle’s five rounds work
Hurdle is played as five consecutive word rounds. In the first round, guesses receive feedback showing which letters are correct, misplaced, or incorrect. Solving a round takes you to the next one, where the previous answer is supplied as the first guess. In the final round, letters identified as correct or misplaced in earlier answers are shown.
Do these 3 things before closing this tab:
1Clear out junk files and repair common Windows errors2Scan for outdated or missing drivers - takes under a minute3Repair Windows errors before they cause bigger problemsKeep repeated letters in mind
The number of times a letter was highlighted in earlier rounds does not necessarily match how many times that letter appears in the final answer. Treat the earlier feedback as clues, not a guaranteed count.
