Primel

Primel is a prime number guessing game. Players, like Wordle, have multiple guesses at a mystery term that provides hints along the way. Instead of a mystery word, players must discover a five-digit prime number.

The globally popular game Wordle may not be the best way to spend a few minutes each day for math enthusiasts. Instead of Wordle, mathematicians should play Primel, a number-guessing game that tests the player's knowledge of prime numbers.

How to play

Primel is a simple game to play as long as you understand prime numbers.

• Simply begin with a five-digit prime number.
• You'll get a series of green and yellow tiles based on how close your word is to the correct prime number for the day.
• Green tiles indicate that the number is in its proper place. You have the correct number if you get a yellow tile, but it belongs in a different space.
• You'll have six chances to get the right answer.
