There’s Now A Wordle-Style Battle Royale Game
The number of games inspired by Wordle seems to get larger every day, with that list now including dungeon crawler Dungleon, the rude-words-only Lewdle, the Swiftie-themed Taylordle, and now a battle royale game called Squabble, as picked up by Polygon.
Squabble, developed by Ottomated, takes the chill, once-per-day formula of the original Wordle and turns it into a hectic battle to the death, with up to 99 players competing to guess the most correct words. With other player’s color-coded guesses visible in real time, Squabble rewards rapid-fire typing over well-considered words.

Rather than players being eliminated upon failing to guess an answer, the game instead gives each player HP. Your HP goes down at a regular rate of 1 per second, and you also take damage for incorrect answers. Making a correct guess will deal damage to other players and heal your own HP. The winner, like in other battle royale games, is the last player left standing.
