Hurdle hints and answers for October 17, 2026
Hints and answers to today's Hurdle all in one place.
The game Hurdle, similar to Wordle, consists of five rounds where players attempt to guess a word. In each round, correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters are displayed. Successfully guessing the word leads to the next hurdle, often providing a clue or the answer to the previous hurdle. The final hurdle displays all correct answers from previous rounds, with highlighted letters indicating their correct positions.
Players can find hints for previous rounds to assist in guessing the words. For instance, the hint for the first word is "Perfecting," and the answer is ACING. The second word's hint is "More rational," with the answer being SANER. The third word's hint is "One of the five senses," and the answer is TOUCH.
Hints for the fourth word are "Prickly plant," leading to the answer BRIAR. The final word's hint is "Spoiled," and the answer is MOLDY. If players find themselves stuck at any point, the game offers assistance.
