How can I use routing to load state data from the URL into a React app?

Question

I'm making a Wordle game in React, and I want to have an option for the user to try an example game when they visit a certain URL subdirectory. For example, visiting myapp.com/example/1 would load a game at the URL root myapp.com, but with the example word "HELLO". I'm thinking of using React Router DOM, but I'm not sure how I should pass in the example word to the original game.
