Say it isn’t so–people are cheating on Wordle? It’s not hard to cheat! You can ask other users what the word is or just a simple Google Search will work!
A recent study by data compiler Wordfinderx, found that online searches increased 196% since The New York Times acquired Wordle.
The study found, cheating for the game is at an all-time high and only growing.
New Hampshire was found to be the state that cheated the most on the game. Also on the list, Rhode Island tied with Virginia, Washington, D.C., Massachusetts and Maine.
It’s easy to cheat, but don’t do it! We don’t want to be known as the cheating state!
