The July 20, 2026 Hurdle is solved, and Mashable’s daily guide has the full run of clues and answers for players who are stuck or ready to check their streak.
Hurdle is a five-part word game built for fans of daily puzzles such as Wordle, according to Mashable. Each round asks players to guess a word while the game marks letters as correct, misplaced or wrong.
After a correct guess, the next round begins with the previous answer filled in as the first attempt. Mashable notes that this can either hand players useful letters or give them very little help, depending on how the words line up.
The final round pulls in the earlier correct answers, showing which letters are in the right spot and which are misplaced. That makes the last board a small pileup of everything that came before.
