Startrekdle Star Trek

About Startrekdle

Morn never says a word on screen, yet he turns up in three different series, and he's one of 126 people in Startrekdle. This Star Trek Wordle runs from Kirk's Enterprise in 1966 to the Starfleet Academy cadets of 2026, with nine live-action shows and the films in between.

Deep Space Nine pulls more weight than people expect. It brings 35 characters to The Next Generation's 33, so Garak, Weyoun, Leeta and Kai Winn are as likely an answer as Riker.

Hybrids list both halves of their species, which is why Spock comes back Vulcan and Human. A yellow on Klingon could just as easily be B'Elanna Torres, K'Ehleyr or Ash Tyler as Worf, and I'd keep that in mind before spending a guess on Gowron.

How to play Startrekdle, the Star Trek Wordle

Every day there is a new secret character from Star Trek. Type any character name and submit it. Each guess shows how close you are: green means that clue matches the secret character, yellow means a partial match, and red means it's wrong. For number clues like Debut, an arrow tells you whether the answer is higher or lower. Keep guessing until you find the character. There is no limit.
