Unravel the daily word puzzle, Hurdle, on January 13, 2026. This game is a twist on the popular Wordle, offering a five-round challenge. In the first round, you guess the word, with each attempt revealing correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters. If you succeed, the next hurdle provides the answer to the previous one, offering clues or none at all. The final hurdle showcases all correct answers from earlier rounds, with letters clearly marked as correct or misplaced. Remember, the frequency of highlighted letters doesn't necessarily reflect their count in the final word. For those stuck, we've got hints: Hurdle Word 1 is a 'CONCH' with a spiral shell, Hurdle Word 2 is 'CHIEF', a Kansas City footballer, Hurdle Word 3 is 'APTLY', meaning competently, Hurdle Word 4 is 'SLACK', a style of pants, and the final word is 'MIMIC', meaning to mirror.
