STRATEGY & TIPS FOR WORD LADDER
Work from the edges or corners inward — constrained spaces usually have fewer valid options, making them easier to lock down first.
Say your reasoning out loud (or in your head) before committing to a move — puzzles often break on an assumption you didn't realize you'd made.
Notice which moves are reversible and which aren't — spend more time thinking before a one-way move than before one you can undo.
If a level feels impossible, double-check the rules — many puzzle games have one mechanic you're not using yet that unlocks the solution.
