I would stick with just smart. I doubt that he wanted to shell out patent and or trademark money and engage in any litigation. Now itâs NYT property and they have the deep pockets to do so. Cashing out while this is in an upward trajectory makes the most sense⦠in a year from now it might be Wordle who? The public is fickle.

He got a seven figure check for something that he did as a hobby plaything. It went viral, he got some fame/notoriety and an offer. I'm sure there is some larger value (evidenced by the NYT offer), but I'd also take that check and run. Sometimes you want to take those chips off the table.

Or was this a creation of the originator? Looks pretty much identical.

So, I went to the website Islander posted

Pretty sure it is from the original creator. Someone here loaded the link to it at the very beginning.
