I thought the —guessr suffix was for GeoGuessr-like games and the —dle was for Wordle-like games.

I bought the domain before I knew what I was gonna do with it :D

But I have plans for some extra modes or games that are less Wordle-like. They're not exactly GeoGuessr-like either, although being dropped onto a chess square and finding out whether you're on c3 or g6 could provide some fun!

FWIW, I think this is a really cool idea but to me it also seemed like the comparison with Wordle was a bit unusual. But I'm fatigued by Wordle variants, so maybe it's just me trying to view it through a different lens.
But chessdle doesn't quite roll off the tongue.
