Wordle has become part of many people’s morning routine, including me and my dad, with whom I differ on tactics. But now there’s a new twist for those who fancy themselves as question masters. Instead of only solving the daily word, you can make them yourself.

According to The New York Times, which acquired the game in 2022, it has added a new feature called Create Your Wordle Puzzle to its Games app on iOS or Android, or through the website. If you’re an All Access or Games subscriber, you’re able to design custom challenges using any four- to seven-letter word. You can then send it to your friends and family, who don’t need to be NYT Games subscribers to play it.
