Wordle is a pun created by the American software engineer Josh Wardle.
Since its release in October last year, the game has become a world phenomenon.
In January, the game was purchased by The New York Times.
In Wordle, players must try to guess a word of five letters in just six attempts.
The game is browser-based and you can only play once a day.
Malmö residents third best in the world
The survey that shows the Swedish successes has been done by the website Word tips.
They have compared wordle results posted on Twitter in January 2022 and compiled the statistics.
The study found that wordle players in Malmö on average guessed the word in 3.58 attempts, which was the third best in the world.
Only Canberra in Australia and Jerusalem in Israel had better statistics.
Malmö resident 30-year-old Hampus Malmström is one of the Wordle players.
- It's great that Malmö is so far at the top, that a Swedish city at all comes so high up.
It is clear that you become extra proud as a Malmö resident, he says.
Swedes are the best in the world
According to the survey, Sweden is the best wordle country.
Poland is in second place and Switzerland in third.
English-speaking countries such as the United Kingdom and the United States fall far behind.
