EDITOR'S NOTE: This article is for Wordle answer #562; the January 3rd Wordle answer is available now.
January 2nd, 2023’s Wordle answer is now available for players to attempt, and the answer might not be one of the most difficult to solve. While the answer refers to a piece of clothing often worn in summer, it might not be the first thing that comes to mind. Players might find it challenging to solve the puzzle as it only features one vowel in the middle. This vowel might not be easy to discover in the regular mode but can be made easier if players use Wordle’s alternative mode.
Even though Wordle’s hard mode is more time-consuming, it does benefit players in the long run. Since this mode does not let players reuse confirmed letters in different spots, it would be a prudent method to use. For example, once players are able to discover the correct position of the vowel, they might be able to solve the answer in their next few attempts. However, if players find themselves stuck on their last few attempts, it would be beneficial to use relevant hints.
