Hurdle Hints And Answers For December 22, 2025
Love your daily dose of wordplay? If Wordle is your warm-up, Hurdle is an excellent follow-up—five brisk rounds that build on each other and culminate in a satisfying finale. If today’s set has you scratching your head, use the hints below, and scroll for the full solutions when you’re ready.
How Hurdle works (fast refresher)
- There are five sequential words to solve. Each round gives feedback on your guesses: correct, misplaced, or incorrect letters.
- When you solve a round, your winning word automatically becomes the first guess for the next round—sometimes a huge help, sometimes a curveball.
- In the final hurdle, your previous correct answers are played in order at the top, with all color feedback visible to guide your last solution.
- Tip: The number of highlighted instances of a letter in earlier rounds doesn’t necessarily match how many times that letter appears in the final word.
