What the hexle?

Hexle challenges you to guess a randomly generated CSS RGB color code.

Gameplay

The R (red), G (green), and B (blue) values of the hex code are entered separately. Only valid hex color values (i.e., hexadecimal numbers between 00 and ff) are accepted.

You can guess as many times as you want.

Correct values in guesses

Correctly guessed color values are shown in green.

Close values in guesses

Close guesses are shown in yellow.

Other values in guesses

Guesses that are not close are shown in grey.

Lower/higher indicators

Guesses that are not correct will have either a lower or higher indicator.

When the correct value is higher than the value you guessed, there will be a bar at the top of the guess.

When the correct value is lower than the value you guessed, there will be a bar at the bottom of the guess.

Comparing your guess to the correct color

At the right of the guess, the color you guessed (left) and the correct color (right) are shown side by side for easy comparison in making your next guess.

How many times can I play per day?

I dunno, like a million I guess? The random color is generated when you load the page, and it's different for everyone (unless it happens to be the same; there are only 16,581,375 unique hex colors). You can just reload the page to play again.

Couldn't I just cheat with dev tools?

Yeah, sure. Go nuts. I'm not going to stop you. But what's the fun in that?

Attribution

This game is sorta kinda like wordle.

Chad Lavimoniere built this based on an idea by Greg Archer.
