How to approach this puzzle

Start with the highlighted T and use the first clue’s 5-letter length to test possible paths. After solving a word, carry its final letter into the next clue. If you get stuck, move to a clue whose definition feels more specific and use the shared starting letter to work backward.

• Use the clue length

  Every clue states its answer’s letter count, which prunes most impossible paths before you trace a tile.

• Watch shared letters

  The letter that ends one answer starts the next, so neighboring clues always meet on a single shared tile.

• Verify the path

  Before locking in a word, retrace it tile by tile—every step must move to a touching hexagon.
