  "account": "On October 11, 2026, word game enthusiasts looking to challenge themselves can try Hurdle, a word game similar to Wordle. The game consists of five rounds, each with its own unique hint and answer.\n\nIn the first round, players must guess a word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters displayed after each guess. Successfully guessing the correct answer leads to the next hurdle, presenting the answer to the previous hurdle as the first guess for the next round.\n\nThe final hurdle provides all the correct answers from previous rounds, clearly displaying both correct and misplaced letters. It's important to note, however, that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does not necessarily indicate how many times that letter appears in the final word.\n\nFor those who find themselves stuck, Hurdle offers hints for each hurdle.\n\n- Hurdle Word 1 hint: Perfume scent.\n- Hurdle Word 1 answer: MUSKY\n- Hurdle Word 2 hint: Interior.\n- Hurdle Word 2 answer: INNER\n- Hurdle Word 3 hint: Windy.\n- Hurdle Word 3 answer: GUSTY\n- Hurdle Word 4 hint: Blasting.\n- Hurdle Word 4 answer: BLARE\n- Final Hurdle hint: Clumsy.\n- Hurdle Word 5 answer: KLUTZ\n\nWith these hints and answers, players can tackle the daily Hurdle challenge and enjoy other games available on Mashable, such as Mahjong, Sudoku, and free crossword puzzles.",
