# Online Song Guessing Games 'Heardle' Challenges Players to Guess a Song Name After a Short Clip By Colin Smith | Published 2022-03-10 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heardle References: [pcgamer](https://www.pcgamer.com/heardle-is-wordle-for-music-and-its-my-favourite-spin-off-yet/) & [heardle.app](https://www.heardle.app/) 'Heardle' is a new online game that challenges players to guess a different song each day. In a similar format to the popular word guessing game 'Wordle,' players have six tries each day. On Heardle, the game starts with a one-second-long clip from a song. Then, when users guess, Heardle reveals one more second of the song if their guess was incorrect. It is important to note that Heardle does not have a database of every song in the world, which would be next to impossible to compile. Rather, when thinking of a guess, users can type an artist or song name into the search bar to see what songs the application has in its database. If a player is unsure of what to guess based on the current length of the clip, they can choose to skip a guess to receive a longer sound byte.
