Wordle #1680 Hints And Answer For Saturday, January 24: A Challenging Energy Bar Puzzle
As the weekend approaches, we're expecting some snowfall, but it's hard to believe with temperatures plummeting to -36 degrees in some areas. Take a break from braving the cold and challenge yourself with today's Wordle puzzle game.
The bonus custom Wordle for this week is 6 letters long and has a double letter. You can play this puzzle at [link] (Forbes).
To tackle today's Wordle, remember that your goal is to guess a hidden five-letter word in six tries or fewer. The game provides feedback after each guess:
- Green: The letter appears in the correct position.
- Yellow: The letter is present but not in the desired spot.
- Gray: The letter doesn't appear anywhere.
For this puzzle, your starting words are SPIRE (81 words left) and SLATE (the Wordle Bot's word). The hint is about an energy bar, which was chosen to avoid easy clues related to "cliff" puzzles that have been too popular in the past.
After analyzing your guesses, you've managed to eliminate 66 words, with BATON being one of them. CLUCK narrowed it down but left only a single word: CLIFF for the win!
In Competitive Wordle, you can guess in different rounds and earn points accordingly. The game features an XP system where Fridays are double XP days, affecting both wins and losses.
To solve today's puzzle, use your knowledge of energy bars to find the correct answer.
The Answer
After solving the puzzle, we discovered that today's word is CLIFF. This word comes from Old English "clif," meaning a steep slope or rock face, and has since evolved to specifically refer to the rocky precipice sense we use today.
Wordle Bot Analysis
As expected, I tied with the Wordle Bot in terms of scores, each securing 4 points in January totals:
- Erik Kain: 15 points
- Wordle Bot: 10 points
Competitive Wordle Score
For this week's competitive game, remember to follow these scoring rules:
- Guessing in 1 round is worth 3 points.
- Guessing in 2 rounds is worth 2 points.
- Guessing in 3 rounds is worth 1 point.
- Guessing in 4 rounds results in 0 points.
- Guessing in 5 rounds leads to a -1 point penalty.
- A 6-round guess is worth -2 points, and missing the puzzle results in a -3 point deduction.
In addition to these rules, Fridays are considered double XP days. You can either keep a running tally or play day-by-day without worries.
Wordle Etymology
The word "cliff" originates from Old English "clif," which referred to any steep incline before narrowing down to the rocky precipice sense we use today.

. but seriously this one is tough with the energy bar theme and everything I'm like trying to think of something that's related to climbing a rock face, you know? the word 'cliff' seems so obvious now that it's been solved but I was totally stuck on it earlier 
. anyway I love how the wordle bot and competitive wordle games are giving us more ways to challenge ourselves online. reminds me of those old multiplayer games we used to play on our psp 
.
I was stuck on energy bars all day trying to guess the word. I kept thinking it was something like GELAT or PEACH but nothing seemed to fit 
. But then I tried CLIFF and it just clicked! It's funny how sometimes you don't even realize what you're looking for until you try everything else. 
Anyway, I'm glad I solved it in the end, now I can focus on watching that new show everyone's been talking about 
They're gonna try out a bunch of random words before figuring it out. But the thing is, sometimes those random guesses can actually help you figure out what's left to guess. It's like, you see that one letter, and then you know which letters can't be next to each other.

. Anyone else get stumped by the energy bar theme? 
like literally -36 degrees in some areas is crazy! anyway back to cliff the answer... i was expecting something a bit more energy bar related but i guess that's just how wordle rolls. Erik kain and wordle bot are tied again, nice job guys 
at least we have competitive wordle to keep us on our toes. i'm curious what the xp system is all about, maybe it'll add an extra layer of challenge to the game...
oh man, 6 degrees below zero is COLD 
... hope everyone stays warm and cozy this weekend 
guess a word when you can barely hold your phone lol i was trying to guess CLIFF but got stuck on the double letter thing my friend got it though they said something about energy bars and SPIRE which is weird because mine didn t work out
. Like, what’s up with these energy bar puzzles? I get that they want to mix things up and avoid common themes, but it's just not my cup of tea 
. But here's the thing: it's not just about winning or losing; it's about the journey itself 
. That's what I love about Wordle - it's all about persistence and learning from your mistakes 
. And let me tell you, when you finally solve that puzzle, it feels like you've unlocked a secret to success 
. Life is full of those puzzles, my friends 
and a snowmageddon is happening outside lol -36 degrees?! brrr 
erik kain might be a strong contender for january scores but i'm rooting for the bot 
! I mean, -36 degrees in some areas? Whoa! Okay, okay, focus... 
but still gotta respect the Wordle Bot tieing up with Erik Kain 
I mean, -36 degrees in some areas? 
so basically the wordle answer is cliff right? thats kinda clever with the energy bar hint idk why they didnt just put a food related word tho like protein or something 
. Saturday's puzzle was super tough, but I'm glad I got to exercise my brain 
️
? i mean, it's not as easy as just buying them at the store, let me tell you... i was experimenting with different ingredients and stuff, and i ended up making a batch that was like, totally inedible 
.
. i mean, seriously, how do people not have any luck with their mornings?
