The game is similar to Wordle !! in some aspects. The rules are simple. Your job is to identify the name of an NBA player by looking at his or her silhouette. You have eight attempts in total to give the correct name. Poeltl will show various information about an athlete when you type in their names.

‘Poeltl’ is a word guessing game just like Wordle, where one has to guess the name of a mystery basketball player based on clues given in only 8 attempts. Poeltl named after the Austrian professional basketball player ‘ Jakob Poeltl’ of NBA. After that, the game went viral after the creator, Gabe Danon, posted the link on his Twitter account.
