Semantle

What Is Semantle?

The Semantle game is a completely different experience from other Wordle versions. Players must exactly enter the hidden word based on the suggestions of the similarity and proximity that the game provides. Those are percentages, which tell the relation level to the mystery word.

Unlike any Strands NYT version, you mustn't find a keyword with limited letters or correct spelling. Instead, Semantle concentrates on meaning and allows you to fill in the answer with unlimited guesses. Let's get familiar with this new version now!

How to Play

First, you should carefully read the suggestion that Semantle gives you. For example, "the nearest word’s similarity is 80.84, the similarity of the tenth-nearest is 52.35 and 25.02 are the similarity score of the thousandth nearest word."

It is different from other word-guessing games. The similarity score shown in the clue is from Wordsvec—the highest is 100, and the lowest is -100; however, the fact is about -34.

When guessing, you need to pay attention to the scores. If the filled words have low points, this means that they are wrong. With an adjective or verb that received the negative scores, the correct answer might be a noun.

In addition, you must also monitor the proximity scores. The standard level is 1000. It will show the green if your guess is close to the target point. In contrast, you'll get "cold" with the answers that aren't one of the closest 1000.

The non-capitalized words in the list of English ones will show "normal" when entered. Generally, words that are misspelled, obscure, or capitalized won't be involved in a ranking. In that case, they'll get a "????" mark.

Tips to Start

  • Once your answer received "cold" and a low score in similarity, you should change the form of the word. For instance, you filled in an adjective and noun, but the result is "cold." You'd better enter a verb in the next guess.

  • Semantle doesn't limit your guesses, so you can comfortably fill in and change the answer to find the hidden word.
