Hank Green 4 x 3 tips and tricks

The puzzle becomes much easier once the shared word is identified. Work outward from flexible words and use category pairs to confirm the hub.

01

Look for the flexible word

The hub word must work in all four groups. If one word seems to fit several clues, treat it as the center of the puzzle.

02

Pair the outer words

Each category has two unique words plus the shared word. Try pairing obvious category mates before guessing the hub.

03

Read category names broadly

Some clues are phrase-based, some are meaning-based, and some use blanks. Keep alternate meanings open.

04

Use solved groups as anchors

Once one group is clear, the shared word becomes easier to test against the remaining categories.
