  Wordle, a word guessing game rose to global popularity in the January of
2022. The goal of the game is to guess a five-letter English word within six
tries. Each try provides the player with hints by means of colour changing
tiles which inform whether or not a given character is part of the solution as
well as, in cases where it is part of the solution, whether or not it is in the
correct placement. Numerous attempts have been made to find the best starting
word and best strategy to solve the daily wordle. This study uses character
statistics of five-letter words to determine the best three starting words.
