The global puzzle phenomenon that isWordleseems to be everywhere these days. Not only has it been making consistent daily rounds on social media since the beginning of 2022, with millions of users sharing their results with friends and fellow players, but it seems even some of Hollywood’s most successful blockbuster filmmakers are getting in on theWordleaction too. However, while one would think being anaward-winning writer of popular shows such asPeacemakerwould make a player the master of the literature-based puzzle game, it seems thatWordlecan even stump the professionals.For the uninitiated,Wordleis an easy-to-play word game puzzle that is difficult to master. Every day, players are assigned a five-letter word to guess within six tries. Each letter is colored green, yellow, or gray after each guess: green shows that the letter is correct and in the right position, yellow shows that the letter is in the answer but not in the right location, and gray reveals that the letter is not in the answer at all. Long-time players all seem to have their own best strategy forWordle, so do not worry if the game starts rather tough at first.RELATED:Wild Wordle Clone Features 25 Letter WordsAmong social media users on Twitter, many made tweets regarding the difficulty of theWordlefor June 20, 2025. With no duplicated letters and two total vowels, the answer for yesterday’s puzzle was the noun “SQUAD.” Being a term used to define a group of people who have a shared particular task, one would assume that if there was one person who could have quickly nipped thatWordlein the bud, it would be none other than James Gunn the director and writer of theacclaimed superhero filmThe Suicide Squad.
However, even Gunn hilariously hadtrouble cracking yesterday’sWordle, despite playing a big part in the production of a movie that shares the word within its title. In a recent tweet posted from his official Twitter account, Gunn stated that although he does not “post these things,” his attempts at solving theWordleare “just embarrassing.” The image attached in the tweet is a screenshot that discloses Gunn’sWordleendeavors, with it taking four guesses before he connected the dots to it being “SQUAD.”

Thankfully, there are quite a number ofWordletips and tricksaround that players can take advantage of, which makes it much easier to guess the answer in as few tries as possible.
