How the five Hurdle rounds connect
Hurdle presents five word rounds. Solving a round advances you to the next, and the previous round’s answer is entered as the next round’s starting guess. In the final round, answers from earlier rounds appear with letters marked as correct or misplaced.
Those earlier letter highlights can help narrow down the final word, but do not use the number of times a letter was highlighted as a guaranteed count of how often it appears in the answer.
