EDITOR'S NOTE: This article is for Wordle answer #234; the February 9th Wordle answer is available now.
February 8th brings another fairly easy Wordle word for puzzle solvers. Wordle is a one-a-day word-guessing game that has taken over the timeline of social media sites for most of 2022. With its short playtime and easy gameplay rules, Wordle is used by many as the perfect little addition to their morning coffee.
Wordle is a simple puzzle game that challenges players to guess a five-letter word within six chances. Using a 5x6 grid, players need to start with a random word, Wordle will then provide information by highlighting certain letters green if they are correct, yellow if they are correct but in the wrong spot, or grey if they are not in the word at all. Using this players can adjust their guesses until eventually landing on the correct answer. Wordle also provides a 'Hard Mode' that will prevent players from using previous letters that have been proven incorrect or moving correct letters to a different space.
Wordle has garnered much attention this year based on the social media sharing option after players have solved the puzzle. Clicking the 'Share' button will copy over a collection of small colored emoji boxes that the player can then paste into their favorite social media website. These simple boxes show the player's attempts at solving the word without spoiling any of the guessed letters. This spoiler-free way of showing off a Wordle attempt is the perfect way to compare against friends and grabs the attention of anyone who may not know about the game.

Wordle 234 Answer (February 8)
If the hints didn't help, today's Wordle is FRAME. Beginning with a good starter word in Wordle is important and today we went with ROAST, which gave us the 'A' and a misplaced 'R'. Moving forward we went with the word BRACE, this provided much more information giving us the correct positioning for 'R', 'A', and 'E'. GRADE was the next guess but only added to the letters not used. Finally, FRAME was used, and victory was at hand.
Despite the fears of losing its free-to-play status generated by the recent New York Times acquisition of Wordle, players everywhere are still solving and sharing their daily journey on social media. Wordle has made a great impression this year and continues to be a perfect little daily puzzle game.
