Not a fan of Wordle type games, but seeing ads of Wordle, I would say that they are on their top wave and have even been mentioned in TV and the only thing that is left for them is going down - all the way down - their downfall has started and it is inevitable.
It is path of all the mobile games, because people are morons and their interest will peak on something else, so it is not clones that will be taking their popularity, but boredom of people.
Any mobile app has ~2 year lifetime on market, unless it is significantly updated and changed to the point, that it is not the same when it was released first.
Currently I am playing couple of 5 year old mobile games - one of them I am playing for 3 years and joined when it was in process of neglect. Another one I started to play 6 months ago and it was "dead" for past 3,5 years now, as it had no events and nothing new added - it was too expensive for a company to employ devs just to fix bugs!
Lifetime of Wordle will be under those 2 years, because it looks very simple concept and there is nothing that can improve it, so it is doomed for even shorter lifetime, than anything that was released before.
Mobile gaming is cancer - it is not clones that are killing successful games, but loss of interest in public, that has a short attention span.... oh look, a shiny thing, kthnxbye.
Over past 2 years I went through 10+ mobile games. They were all very beatufuly done and all of them stole my time and it took tremendous amount for me to get rid of them, because I got addicted to them, so pardon my cynic view on this, but I don't care at all for Wordle and the public free advertisement of another cancer game.
