EDITOR'S NOTE: This article is for Wordle answer #276; the March 23rd Wordle answer is available now.
The March 22nd Wordle is certainly not a commonly used word, but with some hints, anyone can get it. Wordle is a word-guessing game that has taken the internet by storm and become a staple in many peoples' morning routines. Its easy gameplay and social media presence has drawn in players throughout 2022.
Wordle is a simple game, players need to guess a five-letter word within six guesses. Each guess provides clues to the correct answer in the form of highlighted boxes. If a box is green the letter is correct, yellow means the letter is correct but in the wrong position, and grey denotes that the letter isn't in the answer at all. Normally players can use any word they wish, but the game also has a Hard Mode that forces them to use the previous clues by blocking letters. This requires a little more critical thinking from the player but oftentimes Hard Mode can make Wordle easier since randomly guessing answers isn't allowed.
Sharing one's Wordle attempt has turned the game into a bit of a competition with players showing off how fast they achieved the daily word. Wordle uses small colored boxes to show the player's journey through the game without spoiling the actual words that were used. This ambiguous use of emojis has only helped the game gain popularity as more and more people searched for it and shared their own attempts. It's impressive how such a simple solitaire game can gain so much attention with such an easy and unique sharing feature.

Wordle 276 Answer (March 22)
The March 22nd Wordle answer for the day is SLOSH. Not as common a word as some of the others this week and the double 'S' can certainly throw some players off their game. For today's starting word we used IRATE which provided nothing but incorrect letters. Our second guess was MOUND which gave us an incorrectly placed 'O' and more incorrect letters. Feeling a little defeated, our third guess was POOCH, this set the 'O' and 'H' in the correct position. Despite knowing that 'T' was incorrect, the only word that came to mind for the fourth guess was SLOTH. This luckily led to a win in five with SLOSH.
