To get WordleBot to work, one must first solve the daily Wordle, then Wordle -splaining begins.
It picks apart your Wordle strategy guess by guess. GuessingANDY would have guaranteed eliminating every possible solution but one.

WordleBot kept up a friendly, if not patronizing, disposition for the first few slides, but then it just turned cold. You will need some luck to solve the puzzle in six guesses. Is there any chance of luck?

I apologize to WordleBot, but I was offended by the rigid approach to strategy that my coworker, Mashable Australia editor, Caitlin Welsh, had. It was not wasted.
WordleBot will twist the knife and compare your score to how it, a robot, word solve the puzzle after breaking your spirit.
