Google gets in on 'Wordle' fun with a delightful Easter egg

Everyone else is obsessed with Wordle, but the folks at Google are not.

Wordle, a word guessing game that went viral at the start of the year, has an Easter egg in its search results.

Six squares in the Wordle style appear at the top of the results when you search for the game on the internet. The squares are filled with letters that form a few different words, with green and yellow letters lighting them up. So close! The Wordle player hits on the right six letter word, which is, of course, the internet.
It is1-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-6556

A romantic origin story in the New York Times and the fact that players only get one word to play every day has helped the simple and independent word game become one of the first internet phenomena.

Wordle has inspired many imitators, some more upsetting than others. The correct UK-based website for Wordle was delivered when you searched for it on the internet. Wordle on, people!
