One of the clever things about Wordle is a very well-calibrated difficulty level, at least for native English speakers. At least for non-hard mode (i.e. can play a word that you already know can't be the final answer) and using a good start word, it requires some luck to get the answer in less than four but you won't lose (i.e. more than six) very often. And it's usually pretty quick.

Thinking about whether something is a likely answer also introduces some strategy itself.

In spite of being something of a professional writer, I don't usually like word games (including Scrabble) much. But I do like Wordle--although I quickly tired of the multiple word variants.
