The answers to today's Quordle, game #1094, are…

  • SLANT
  • TRUNK
  • WOOZY
  • EATEN

Very happy to check out after seven turns – especially as today featured a rare outing for the letter Z.

WOOZY was my final word and although I was impressed with myself and dusting imaginary dust from my shoulders, the truth is that, after deducing that the word had to include a double-O, there were only two choices – WOOZY or BOOZY, one of which you experience after being one of the other. For once in Quordle, I guessed the right one.

How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.
