What is Hexadecimal?
Girthle is a game of hexadecimal colors.
The goal is to correctly guess the hexadecimal color of the Girthle logo.
Hexadecimal is a system of numbers 0-16, represented by numbers 0-9 and A-F (10-15). Red, Green and Blue are represented by values between 0-255 (Two hexadecimal digits).
Over 16 million colors can be generated by a hex code. Each hex code consists of 6 hexadecimal values.
They are arranged in an order representing red-red-green-green-blue-blue. The higher the hexadecimal value, the more saturated the color is (ex. #FFFFFF is White, and #000000 is Black. Red would be #FF0000, Green would be #00FF00, and Blue would be #0000FF).
Hex codes are arranged similar to decimal numbers. For colors, there are only two decimal places. The first digit represents a value multiplied by 16, while the second represents a color multiplied by 1. For example, the hexadecimal number F2 would be worth (15) X 16 + (2) X 1 = 242. Hint: The first digit changes the color more because it is worth more in value.
How to play Girthle.
Each of the six answer boxes will represent an Red, Green or Blue value. Simply type a valid hexadecimal number. When all six boxes are filled, press enter.
Interpreting the meaning of your guess.
First, when the box of an individual digit turns Yellow, it is correct.
Any incorrect digit boxes will be in the color of their value. It gives you hints based on the saturation of the color. The more saturated (whiter) the color is, the further the value is away from the correct value.
For example, If a value is in the red column, it will be red in hue. The closer the color is to the correct answer, the color will look closer to red rather than pink.
For additional assistance, the box containing the hashtag(#) in your guess row will generate the color you have made. This can be useful in determining if you need less red, blue, or green.
