A Taylor Swift Version Of 'Wordle' Called 'Taylordle' Is Causing Strife In The Community

A new fan project that copies the hit game Wordle was released last Friday by the Holy Swift podcast. The rules of the game, called "Taylordle," are the same, but the words chosen and allowed to be used all relate to Taylor Swift and her pop culture lore throughout the years.

Upon release, fans immediately started trying their luck at guessing the words right, with many of them starting to struggle and get frustrated. This frustration was then turned into memes and social media posts by the slew of participants.

This sensation of joy and love with a new website and daily game for Swifties was quickly dashed, however, when the February 1st word came around. The word of the day on Tuesday was Kanye, who has quite a bad history with Taylor. Though he definitely fits the description of being a significant part of the TSwift lore, many fans were upset with his inclusion in the game, as it was "nothing but bad vibes."

This frustration was also compounded by some words that are significant to Taylor, such as her dog Benji not being an allowable word choice despite being paramount to the Taylor Swift Experience.

today’s taylordle… no❤️.

Why is Taylordle using words that have a negative relationship with Taylor? I thought this was supposed to be a fun and lighthearted word game 😅
