Looking for a daily brain teaser? Hurdle, the popular word-guessing game, offers a fresh challenge each day. If you’re stuck on today’s puzzle for November 27, 2025, we’ve got you covered with hints and the final answers.
Key Takeaways:
- Hurdle is a five-round word-guessing game similar to Wordle.
- Each round’s answer becomes the first guess for the next round, offering clues.
- The number of highlighted letters in previous rounds doesn’t guarantee their count in the final word.
- Today’s answers are BIGOT, FORTY, STILL, STUNG, and CHICK.
How Hurdle Works
Hurdle presents players with a series of five-letter words to guess. The game mechanics are designed to provide escalating clues as you progress. After your first guess, the game reveals which letters are correct and which are misplaced. Crucially, the answer to a previous round becomes the starting guess for the next. This can offer significant hints, or sometimes, very little direct help.
A key point to remember is that the color-coded feedback only indicates the presence of a letter in the current word. If a letter appears twice in a previous answer, it doesn’t mean it appears twice in the current word you’re trying to solve. Careful analysis of all clues is essential.
