For fans of Wordle and the even trickier Quordle, there's a new word game on the block you might want to give a go.
The latest daily puzzle to get people scratching their heads is Weaver, first created by novelist Lewis Carroll on Christmas day in 1877.
Taking that original idea and brining it into the 21st century, it's now been computerised and transformed into an online challenge to help you practice your word skills and give your brain a workout.

How To Play Weaver word game
The puzzle invites you to weave your way from the start word to the end word. When creating each new word you enter can only change one letter from the word above it.
The game will only accept words in its dictionary and in similar style to Wordle, when you add a new word, any letters in the correct place will go green.
A new puzzle is available each day and the game stores your stats so it could become quite addictive.
After you complete a game, a panel pops up telling you what the optimal score for that game is and how you compared, along with a running total of puzzles you’ve solved, your current streak and your longest ever streak.
To build the suspense, it also shows a countdown timer for when your next puzzle will be available.
