Hurdle hints and answers for October 18, 2026

Hurdle is a word game similar to Wordle, consisting of five rounds. In the first round, players guess a word and are shown correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters. Getting the correct answer leads to the next hurdle, where the previous answer serves as the first guess. The final hurdle provides all correct answers from previous rounds, with correct and misplaced letters clearly identified. It's worth noting that the number of times a letter is highlighted doesn't indicate how many times it appears in the final word.

For today's Hurdle, the hints and answers are as follows:

Hurdle Word 1: A sleep condition. The answer is APNEA.

Hurdle Word 2: Foreign. The answer is ALIEN.

Hurdle Word 3: Picture. The answer is PHOTO.

Hurdle Word 4: Divided. The answer is SPLIT.

Final Hurdle: Range. The answer is SCOPE.

If players get stuck at any point, help is available.
