Waffle

What is Waffle?

Waffle is a unique word puzzle game where players must rearrange letters in a waffle-shaped grid to form 6 valid words (3 horizontal and 3 vertical). Unlike Wordle, you start with all the letters already placed - you just need to swap them into the correct positions.

Waffle Game Rules

1. Objective: Rearrange letters to form 6 valid five-letter words
2. Grid Layout: 5×5 grid in a waffle pattern with 6 words (3 across, 3 down)
3. Swap Mechanic: Drag and drop letters to swap their positions
4. 15 Swaps: You have 15 swaps to solve the puzzle
5. Color Hints:
   • 🟩 Green — Letter is in the correct position
   • 🟨 Yellow — Letter belongs in this word but wrong position
   • ⬜ White — Letter belongs in a different word
6. Daily Puzzle: All players solve the same waffle each day
