-
When you launch the Quotle app, you may pick a category and be presented with a screen containing a text field and a set of tiles. Each tile corresponds to a word in the quote.
-
The text field is where you can type your guesses to uncover the hidden quote. Start typing words that you think might be part of the quote.
-
As you type, Quotle will analyze your input and highlight tiles that contain words semantically close to the hidden quote. This can help you narrow down your search.
-
To switch to the length of a word on a tile, simply tap on it. Tapping will alternate between displaying the hint for the word and its length. This feature can be useful to help you deduce the hidden quote.
-
Continue guessing words and using the tile hints until you have successfully revealed the entire quote.
-
Once you have found the full quote, the game will end and you can celebrate your victory!
