(WARNING: THIS POST MAY CONTAINS HEARDLE SPOILERS)

Last year, Wordle took the world by storm. The game where you attempt to guess a five-letter word in six attempts became a daily routine for many. After its success, many clones of the game emerged. If you’re a fan of these daily puzzle games, perhaps you’re like Mac and you attempt to guess the daily Heardle. Recently acquired by Spotify, Heardle is the game where a player listens to the intro of a song, then attempts to guess the correct artist & title in the list provided.
