Heardle is one of the most popular online puzzle games and is an off-shoot of Wordle.
Heardle is self-described as "a respectful homage to Wordle, with a musical twist," and has gone on for 97 days straight now. This is 97 times that Heardle has twisted the brains of music aficionados and casual fans alike. It's been said that more than a million people play Heardle a day, and you're one of them.
