minus-squareSaik0@lemmy.saik0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·8 months ago Somebody pointed out in another post that wordle is the same thing as a game show from the 80s, But they said this… I don’t think Bulls and Cows was a game show. If we’re just looking for the “earliest” game, then I think we’re looking for Jotto… Which was 50’s.
