Twixtle tips and tricks

Each move type is used exactly once. Let the most restrictive relationship anchor the path, then use the remaining move types to fill the gaps.

01

Use every type once

Cross off anagram, verb, homophone, and compound as you identify them. A move type cannot be used twice in the same solution.

02

Anchor the anagram

The anagram keeps exactly the same letters, so it is often the easiest and most restrictive relationship to identify first.

03

Read compounds both ways

Either word may come first in the closed compound. Test both orders when a pair seems unrelated on the surface.

04

Work from both ends

The start and end words are fixed. Build inward from whichever endpoint offers the clearest homophone, verb form, or compound partner.
