Jotto? Looks like Wordle to me.
Sometimes I feel like a made a discovery, you know, like Christopher Columbus. I discovered something that already existed. I won’t be taking credit, though. When I stumbled on this during this move in/move out project, I thought I discovered Wordle. It’s the precursor to what became a national obsession, arriving right when we all needed it the most, during the COVID pandemic lockdown. Of course Jotto was played by two people, but in the 21st century, we are playing Wordle by ourselves. Yet another indication of how isolated we are, but that is another conversation.
