I figured this one out in 4 guesses.

Do I think the bot represented my guesses?

alien
Maybe...
chimp
Yes!
trick
Maybe...
quick
Yes!

I think it’s a pretty common strategy for Wordle solvers to pick a word they like and use it each day. When my partner was solving puzzles, ALIEN was his starter word.

I like to pick different words each day, partially in service to this goofy project, and also because the dopamine payoff of getting a Wordle puzzle correct on the first guess is potentially going to happen more than once 😌… not that it’s happened since I started Wordle Illustrated, by each day brings a new opportunity for greatness!

The image above more excellently represents the solution, QUICK, than the one below, but I felt it must be shared. Just bask in the glory of the chimp-adjacent creatures.
