Now we're adding SYMBOLS to Wordle!?

- I'm Scott Strosahl, and today I'm solving a new puzzle created by Daniel Baamonde, called 'Symble'.
It's like #Wordle, except it breaks your brain.
You can play Symble yourself at www.symble.app/

Hey thanks so much for playing my game and drawing some attention to it! Your strategies were great to hear out loud. I'm about to implement a daily version too so keep an eye out!
Awesome twist to this style of game, very creative. Looking forward for more to come!
I tried it and don't think the symbol logic adds much to the puzzle. It feels like you'll almost always have the grey coloring from the first guess and the second one will disambiguate so after the second guess that rule is resolved.
Thanks for this brain destroying version.🤯😄 I would give it a try if English was my first language.
Any chance I can get a link to it? Can't find it with Google
Nevermind, found it in the description of the video lol
The fact that he chose beset over reset blows my mind
I actually thought of reset while I was editing the video... I think beset came to mind first because I had been thinking 'bough' before that so I already had the B in my head.
@@StroSolves I was thinking beset too when you said it. I get the feeling these variants lean towards the more obscure words.
wtf is a beset
@@etaoimusic6595 It is a verb like belittle or beware.
@@etaoimusic6595 a beset is a 5 letter word
This is overly complicated and I would never play it. But watching it is so much fun. You have a great way of articulating your thoughts before playing a word. Same with needle, Octordle, keep playing these weird/innovative clones.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is actually so much easier than it looks if you get the hang of it! I just did three words in a row, and though it was very easy, it was unbelievably satisfying, making you feel like you cracked the Enigma or something
Yeah it’s really not as bad as it seems when you try for yourself
um I think you can see it as a variation of 1A2B, then it is not that hard.
@@antikovt yeaaa I just got one correct in four tries and I feel like a genius lmao
Cool concept. I got the hang of it once I put it in my head that one of the symbols mean "one of the letters from your word you guessed is somewhere in this spot" rather than the classic "a letter from that particular spot is somewhere else"
Then it's just a matter of knowing what each symbol means.
6:00 maybe here you should guess XXXNT
If the 5th symbol is a red cross, then the 5th letter is a T.
If the 5th symbol is a green heart, then the 5th letter is an N.
If the 5th symbol is a pentagon, then the 5th letter is an A.
Great vid as always!
W o o o o w!
For octordle, I always start with bears, mound, chalk, and wifty. It gives you a majority of the letters and it is a really efficient strategy. Highly recommend
My starting word is “Rates”. It has the wheel of fortune letters you like to use. I’m new to your channel btw and am loving it! You also got me into wordle.
Glad to have you here!
mine is trace!
@@StroSolves you should do adieu followed by story, it has common letters and all the vowels and no repeats
Lmao mine is tears
@@nintenjoe2734 I like snort more than story, I just think N is more common than Y
This was crazy. I think I could play with one twist or the other. But both makes it ridiculous!
So confusing. My brain cant proceed this
~9:25... we 'wowed' at the exact same time! What a crazy game...
Since colon is a symbol, it could be a start for symbol wordle
The first twist is really unassuming until your looking for the wrong letter, then you have to step back and say “One of these letters is yellow. The symbol are in order of the final word not guess presented” . For a second I thought the game logic had broken.
Yeah, I've actually seen quite a few people sending the game designer messages thinking the logic is broken because it's just so weird
I think this is my favorite wordle variant. It feels like more of a puzzle.
The resemblance between your face and LordMinion777's is UNCANNY
I have played this once but didn’t get it because sometimes the symbol would be a grey one, (for me a sun) but at the end it would be like “oh this one is in the word but ye”
This game is also called BULLS AND COWS where the cows are the "yellow" and bulls are "green". The only difference in symble and wordle is that you wont know which letter is the green/yellow and must figure that out too
This form of Wordle makes using five non-repeating words so much more powerful, as you can quickly recognize which symbols signify red and yellow. GUCKS, VIBEX, WALTZ, FJORD, NYMPH got me the answer to March 22 in 6 and I didn't even use FJORD.
The rules are: some symbols means there is a letter in your guess which the answer contains and it is in that location
some symbols means that letter is at the correct place
some means the answer does not contains that letter in that space
"It could be the answer" I think you're a prophet
I think HEART and then EARTH are good starting words for this in order to work out the meaning of the symbols
I think this game is actually easier than Wordle, in that there are more likely to be valid words that can do what one is looking for. If one's first response is -*---, then look for a word which puts the letter from the * position in a new location, along with four new letters. This will immediately reveal whether the * indicated the second letter was in the right place (the second character of the clue will become a new shape), or indicated that the second letter of the answer was somewhere in the first guess, but not the second spot. Interesting game, even if it seems confusing at first.
I would’ve put prone for the 3rd guess
I wana see more of this
Ive been playing this for a few days now, and i have to say, it is definitely a mind twister.
Tip for symble: You can think of the "yellows" as essentially doing the opposite thing: as opposed to pushing the letter in that space to another space, it pulls another letter from another space into the yellow space.
thanks, I was struggling for like 5 minutes trying to figure out how it would be any different if you used the guess as the answer and vice versa
I’m trying to play it at the same time and hearing the twists has hurt my brain and I’m very confused
I did it
Good job!
@@Battlecards1 isn't it crazy satisfying though? :)
6:06 You've got it backwards here. The 💚 means the last letter of the secret word is definitely in the first guess. It *must* be N, A, or T. If you guess TOUGH and get a 💚 in the last position again, it's definitely T, because N and A aren't in TOUGH. If you get a 💚 in a different position, that letter of the secret word has to be an O, G, or H. The symbol representing yellow can never appear in the same position for a different letter. That's how you know ➕ can't be yellow, because NASTY and MUSIC don't share any letter besides the S, and it's in the same position in both. NASTY and TOUGH don't share any letters besides T, and it's in a different position, so a 💚 in the same position *must* be the only letter the two words have in common.
yeah he got that later in the video
This man is a genius. I would never be able to win this game.
im super new to the channel but i love your content! i love puzzles and all the different wordle variants are super fun. my newest favorite is polydle speed mode, you should check it out!!
I was thinking pesky for the 4th guess
i always use house for a starting word in wordle
So after having watched plenty of your videos, I decided I wanted to try one of these, loaded up symble and first guessed: CAIRN, then CABLE, and I won immediately
This is a puzzle lover’s paradise
I feel like queue would be a good starter for this
Oh heck no! This old brain is overloaded.
That was a nasty challenge, but you decoded it like music. It may have been tough, but the word was beset.
Thought it was gonna be 'RESET' and he will need another guess
Man i thought squaredle was complicated this is just insane. Definitely will not become one of my daily wordle games
Love squaredle so much and it’s honestly not so bad but this is so incredibly hard I keep getting confused and I’ve been staring at my 5 entires forever and I can’t figure out what the symbols are
Oh my gosh I just got it in 7 yay
Imo, symble isn't that complicated at all. There are only two changes to the rules:
1) "yellow" letters are in the position of the answer instead of the guessed word
2) at the start, you don't know what each symbol means
I love your videos! Have you checked out Duotrigordle yet? (32 word wordle). It would be a long video but i’d love to see you do it
It helped me a lot to write down possible letter positions on a scrap piece of paper. Feel free to try that if you want! 🤗
I think my brain just broke
I got lucky with my second guess having 3 correct letters (after confirming that the symbol I had meant that). After that it was pretty easy thankfully.
Nice video. Would like to see another
i dont understand AT ALL
but its still entertaining to watch you play it :D
I first played it then started watching your video, i actualy manages to solve it
Yeah, the heart is green
GG you're very smart I can barely do normal wordle lol. Really good to watch tho, I'd like to see more of these. Also how do I join the discord
discord.gg/AEhpTG4z45
I like to do SCOLD as my starting word, it always gives me a letter.
This almost seems like it might be easier than wordle once you get the hang of it
i had quite the brain fart on this one
This hurt my head, Daniel did a great job on this tho, I'm gonna show my 'expert' wordle friends this and see how they react 🤣
I'll be honest, I thought it was "reset" and I was screaming that you weren't thinking of it, but then when you guessed _____ and it was right, i was embarrassed XD.
Haha, and when I was adding it I realized I should have guessed reset, and I was embarrassed. 😆
I mean, they both work, but reset is more likely to have been the word, since such word puzzles don't like to make eh answer obscure.
@@danielyuan9862 Yeah, that exactly what I thought as well.
I’m ded, I am 2 mins into it, and I can’t think straight anymore 🥴
My starting word is always stern and it barely helps me even though it has wheel of fortune letters
That was the most confusing thing I've ever seen and I still don't understand it
1:07 wait isn’t that a sharingan?
This had to be one of the most hardest games I've ever played! (I still got the word tho) I don't know how you got it in 4 tries??? Thanks for introducing this to me
Do chase crazy crane and then solve!!
This is very confusing at first, but I think I'd get used to it after a few tries. Of course, with a hundred other wordle variants out there, there's just not enough time in the day.
I'm sorry what, I think I had a stroke
10 Seconds in the video, and I'm already confused.
Scott, you should try absurdle
This broke my brain lol
Love the videos I have
Been of sub since 5k
I did 3 in a row and my head hurts now
on tuesday march 22nd’s wordle start with cocco because it only had 2 unique letters
Next wordle pls do table chimp young and ford's first because you do 19 different letters
The game would be improved if there were also version with only one of those rules mentioned. Then this is hard mode, and the other two versions give some practising
Today’s wordle is their and start with arise because why not
my go to words are steam, stear or trial
Iowa State made the sweet 16 👀
Yeah!
Haha I got it with two guesses left!
You should try Birdle
Heart is green
Just so you know it was a green heart :)
I'm not English speaking originally, i dont know the last words meaning, so i was wondering why you weren't typing Reset as a guess
Hey, can you do a story or something, my friend gave me this idea. Example: Drunk, Dudes, Robin, Money, Banks
This is a really interesting, I ended up hitting a 6 on my 2nd one
I'm colorblind too and it's really weird to explain stuff to other people, my mind kinda skips colors as a feature to describe most things.
Totally! It's like my brain says, 'well, I'm probably wrong about the color so let's not even bother remembering it, or thinking about it at all'
I don’t get how you went BESET before RESET considering you didn’t use the R beforehand 😂
whats the link for this game? I cant find it
This was very cool! What type of colourblindness do you have? I assume green deficiency but I was just wondering
yup, green deficient
@@StroSolves Oh cool, I have red deficient 😂
I feel you got lucky and reset was a better guess but Jesus that’s complicated
yeah, it probably was. I really wasn't expecting 'beset' to be the word. I mostly wanted to find out where the Es were.
You should do wordle2 which is 6 letter words and start with people and trains
try globle, it’s like worldle but more specific
I think I’ll stick to watching you solve this one lol😅
you should try a duotrigordle
My brain hurts
I played this and holy fuck it's weird but it's so much fun
My first try I got three positions correct (green) so I mistook em for yellow n just used up all my guesses going for the actual yellow letters 😭 luck doesn't do well with THIS game
Start with "nymph"
mine was crime
my brain is no
Shoutouts to wooferzfg for the name alone ❤️😅 I spend most of my time on Twitch in zfg's channel
For normal wordle you should start with drops for no reason
How is the “T” in the same category as the “N A M U I C” if there is none of those letters in the word? And how is the “ H and the Y” green hearts!? I’m so confused someone explain
"yellow" clues are in the position of the answer, not the word. The two green hearts (the yellow clue) are both in the last position, meaning the last letter of the answer, which is a T, exists in the guess. The positions that correspond to the T in the guess are actually looking at the positions in the answer, so the E and the B didn't exist in the guessed words, so you get the pentagon.
Any links? I can’t find it
this game isn't as hard as it seems. do a practice round or two and it'll click. it's really really fun!
Id do shunt podgy flame brick
i watched the whole video like i understood what he said..
