Just a couple of hours ago, Wordle 236 went live in this part of the world: South-east Asia.
Btw, I’m in Singapore.
And today’s puzzle marks the tenth live game for which I’ve posted my step-by-step gameplay and the thinking behind each move I had made.
I found out about Wordle very late and began playing it only at game #211! Without much ado, I started to write about how I’m doing Wordle each day.
And I will continue to do so, albeit keeping it concise from the next live puzzle onwards. Short and sharp; to the point 🙂

Step-by-Step Replay of Wordle 236 Puzzle
Guess #1
Was putting on some moisturizer after my shower earlier on… and had thought of CREAM as a starting word 🙂
Guess #2
Got 2 vowels showing up; probably the unknown word doesn’t contain more, I’m thinking. Anyways, will check out STALE next.
Guess #3
Immediately, ASIDE comes before my eyes! Could I have been wrong about extra vowels earlier? No harm trying that word.
Guess #4
Letter A is confirmed at the second slot! So we are looking at either the _AS_E or _A_SE pattern. Can’t think of anything for the first pattern, knowing that L and T cannot slot between S and E. As for the other pattern, PAUSE seems correct; we can rule out CAUSE.
Not bad, got the solution to today’s Wordle in the usual 4 moves 🙂
And without wild guessing (or what I’ve coined “under think” lol), just careful and objective play.
