Today's Hurdle hints and answers for December 10, 2025
Are you a fan of daily word games like Wordle? If so, you'll love Hurdle! This game is a fun twist on the popular word-guessing format, with five rounds of increasing difficulty. In each round, you'll try to guess the word, with hints provided in the form of correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters.
Here's how it works: The first round is a challenge to guess the word, and you'll see the correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters for each guess. If you guess the correct answer, you'll move on to the next hurdle, where you'll be given the answer to the previous hurdle as your starting point. This can provide valuable clues or none at all, depending on the words used. The final hurdle is a real test of your word-guessing skills, as it reveals all the correct and misplaced letters from the previous rounds.
One important thing to note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses doesn't necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle. So, don't get too caught up in the highlighting!
Now, let's dive into today's Hurdle puzzle. Here are the hints and answers for each word:
