Hurdle is the daily word game that asks you to guess five words across five rounds, and today’s answers have arrived along with a set of hints designed to nudge you toward the right letters without giving away too much. If you’re stuck on any of the steps, Mashable has done the work, and the answers for September 25, 2026 are now public.
How Hurdle Works
The game starts with a single word to guess, showing you which letters are correct, misplaced, or wrong after each attempt. Get it right and you move to the next hurdle, where the answer to the last word serves as your first guess. That can offer several clues or none, depending on how the words line up.
For the final hurdle, every correct answer from the earlier rounds appears, with correct and misplaced letters clearly marked. One note: the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does not necessarily tell you how many times that letter appears in the final word.
Today’s Hints and Answers
The first hint points to a long, hooded winter coat, and the answer is PARKA. The second hint asks you to put something into practice, and the answer is ENACT. The third hint describes courage, and the answer is BRAVE. The fourth hint asks for a word describing livid anger, and the answer is ANGRY.
The final hint is simply Golden, and the answer is HONEY.
