About

Wordle on the IIGS desktop, from the month everyone was playing it. Six guesses at a five letter word, green and yellow tiles, a share grid you can copy, and a code entry so two machines can play the same word.

Dan Malec wrote it in C with a modern pipeline: automated builds and unit tests on a Linux CI runner for an application that runs on a IIGS. Jeremy Rand later wrote a Wordle Solver desk accessory to go with it.

Version 0.4 (February 2022) is an 800K .2mg or a ShrinkIt archive. This archive does not host the disk; get it from the GitHub releases page.
