Does the Trap Trainer simulate full Wordle feedback?

Not exactly. Instead of drawing full green/yellow tiles, the trainer focuses on the set of possible answers in each trap and how much your guess would narrow that set. It’s meant to coach decision quality and risk management rather than reproduce the entire interface of the game.

Where do the trap answers come from?

Each trap is defined as a curated list of official Wordle answers for that pattern. At runtime, we intersect those lists with our live Wordle answer dictionary so they stay aligned as the game updates.

How should I use this with Hard Mode?

Many of the nastiest traps show up when you already have several greens and yellows locked in. You can practice those situations here, then use the Wordle Hard Mode Helper to keep your guesses legal and information‑dense in real games.

Will you add more traps over time?

Yes. The trainer is built on a simple scenario list, so we can add new patterns as the meta shifts or as the community reports painful streak‑losing boards.

Wordle Trap Trainer & Endgame Simulator

Practice the nasty endgames that usually break streaks. Pick patterns like _ATCH or _IGHT, then test the guesses you would actually play. The trainer shows how risky each answer shot is and how many candidates a burner word would knock out, so you can build better instincts before the next real game.

Use the Hard Mode Helper to keep your guesses legal and information‑dense in real games, and the Word Finder when you want to see the full candidate list for a pattern. For starter theory between games, check the Letter Frequency & Starter Explorer.

Train classic Wordle trap patterns

Pick a trap pattern like _ATCH and play out the endgame. Each scenario starts with a tight cluster of official Wordle answers and a fixed number of guesses so you can practice choosing information‑dense burner words instead of low‑odds direct shots.

Move log

No moves yet. Start by entering the first guess you would play in this trap. We'll show you how risky it is and how many answers it rules out.

Tip: in traps with many answers and only a few guesses left, you usually want at least one burner that hits several of the distinguishing consonants before you start firing at individual answers.

What is the Wordle Trap Trainer?

Some Wordle boards are much nastier than others. Patterns like _ATCH, _IGHT, or SHA_E can hide several valid answers at once. If you only have a few guesses left, firing directly at BATCH → CATCH → HATCH is a fast way to lose a long streak.

The Trap Trainer turns those situations into a small practice gym. Each scenario locks in a classic pattern and a set of official Wordle answers. Your job is to play out the endgame and get a feel for when you should play a high‑information burner word vs when it finally makes sense to guess the answer directly.

How to use this trainer

1) Pick a trap pattern from the dropdown (for example _ATCH or _IGHT), or hit “Random trap”. 2) Look at the remaining guesses and imagine you are in that position on a real board. 3) Type the word you would actually play next and hit “Evaluate guess”. The trainer tells you whether that move is a risky direct shot at one answer or a good burner that rules out many of the remaining candidates.

You can repeat the scenario a few times to see how different burner words change the odds. Over time, you’ll start to recognise when a trap is dangerous and which letters you should probe first before committing to an answer.
