The answers to today's Quordle, game #813, are…

  • METAL
  • MATEY
  • AGREE
  • DRIVE

This is a fairly humdrum Quordle enlivened by the inclusion of MATEY, which is a great word that wouldn't necessarily expect to be included as an answer in the game. The repeated E in AGREE might have made it harder to find that word, but the fact that METAL and MATEY include four of the same characters as each other should have helped solve both of those, and ultimately there's nothing to be scared of here.
