If you've never heard of word hurdle and are curious about what all the fuss is about, here's how to play it.
Players begin by typing in a six-letter word.
Each letter in your guessed word changes depending on whether it appears in the answer.
If a letter turns blue, it means it is in the correct location.
However, if a letter turns yellow, it means that it belongs to the word but is in the wrong place.
When a letter is gray, it does not appear in the answer.
Players have six chances to figure out the mystery word using the clues.
