This one was a late-night spin-off I built using 100x Bot. I thought, what if Wordle had a villain? So I built Mr. Clues, an AI browser agent that plays Wordle side by side with you.
The catch? It’s really good. Only about 5% of people have managed to beat the AI.
It’s simple, a little addictive, and honestly hilarious watching the AI flex on you.
Would love for you to give it a try and see if you can land in the winners’ circle:
- Install the Chrome extension - Look for “Mr. Clues” - Play on your phone while the AI battles you in real time
@shardul_lavekar Haha this is brilliant, Shardul. Love the “Wordle with a villain” angle. Quick one: did you tune Mr. Clues for pure optimal play, or is there some personality baked into how it guesses?
@tonyabracadabra Mr Clues is given instructions on how to solve wordle. Basic understanding around green, yellow and grey color codes. After that its human vs AI - who gets there first.
I really like this twist—going head-to-head with a super-smart AI in Wordle sounds like the perfect mix of frustrating and hilarious. Can't believe only 5% have beaten it! How wild does Mr. Clues get with his guesses?
@maunilparikh The question is, how am I going to explain to my boss that I went on PH to prepare our product launch, but spent the rest of the day battling the bots? 🤔
@rajpurohit_vijesh Right now Mr. Clues doesn’t actually learn from your mistakes, he plays independently based on his own solving logic. Wanted to keep this first version simple and fun :)
As someone who thought I was decent at Wordle... this is about to humble me real quick 😂 The real-time battle aspect sounds addictive. Can't wait to see if I'm part of that elite 15% or just another casualty of Mr. Clues!

Hi everyone 👋 Maunil here
It was a lot of fun building this agent (Mr. Clues) and then getting beaten by my own agent at Wordle
You can try it yourself:
Go to NYT Wordle
Install and launch the chrome extension
Look for Mr. Clues under the Games category
Click Run - the AI will start playing your Wordle while you play side by side on your phone
Only about 5% of players manage to beat him, so if you do, tag us on X and we’ll feature you on the wall
Open to building more such fun ideas, what should I build next?
Mr. Clues sounds really fun! Curious if there'll be updates to make the AI trickier or add new game modes.

@m050970905 yeah, we are thinking of adding an advanced mode where pro users will have to fighter harder with the AI!
