Wordle, the web-based word game created by Josh Wardle—and now owned by The New York Times—has become an essential daily pastime for many players. Inspired by the classic game Mastermind, Wordle has also inspired a number of alternate versions, with themes ranging from Star Wars to the Fortnite universe.

Jumble is not one of them. Created by cartoonist Martin Naydel, it has been around since 1954 and was formerly known as Scramble. The goal is simple: you must unscramble four words and then use selected letters from those words to play a bonus challenge. Each Jumble puzzle has an illustration that gives a clue as to what the bonus challenge will be once solved.
You can play the Daily Jumble, Jumble in Color, and their various variations on the Chicago Tribune website. Players can also print them out and play on paper if they miss doing newspaper puzzles and crosswords with a pen. The main difference between digital and paper is that the digital version colors letters red as you type if they are in the wrong place.
There will always be days when you can't decipher one of the words, especially if you're playing on paper and don't have the visual feedback of the digital version.
