ZK Wordle is an experimental version of the popular word-guessing game Wordle that incorporates zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs. ZK Wordle was created to showcase the potential of ZK proofs in the context of games and puzzles.
In ZK Wordle, a player attempts to guess a five-letter word chosen at random by the game. After each guess, the game provides feedback by indicating which letters in the guess are correct and in the correct position (represented by a green square), which letters are correct but in the wrong position (represented by a yellow square), and which letters are incorrect (represented by a red square). The player has six attempts to correctly guess the word.
The main difference between ZK Wordle and regular Wordle is that in ZK Wordle, the game uses ZK proofs to ensure that it is not cheating by revealing any information about the chosen word other than the feedback provided after each guess. This means that the player can be confident that the game is not simply providing feedback based on the chosen word, and that the game's behavior is determined solely by the input and internal state of the program.
ZK Wordle was created by the team at StarkWare, a blockchain technology company that specializes in ZK proofs. The code for ZK Wordle is open source and available on the company's GitHub repository.
