Crowdle

Crowdle is democratic wordle. This is a nebulous premise with multiple interpretations; so instead of picking one, crowdle implements them all!

In all cases, "democratic" means multiplayer cooperative where game actions are decided by vote. The players agree to play ahead of time and share a victory or loss. We also specifically mean direct democracy where every player has equal representation in the voting process.¹

However, what exactly are the players voting on?

• OneWord: Each player votes on a specific valid word to guess.
• AllLetters: Each player can vote which letter is on every spot.
• ManyLetters: Each player can vote which letter any spots are.
• OneLetter: Each player can vote which letter one spot is.

In addition, you can contrast majority voting from other options such as instant-runoff voting.

It's fun to theorize what kind of teamwork might happen with any of the above, but it's more fun to just play the game!
