About this quiz
A word ladder joins two words by a chain of others, changing one letter at a time. This one starts at trick and ends at treat.
- All 9 words have 5 letters.
- The letters never change places: only one of them is swapped at each step.
- The rungs come in order, and a rung stays hidden until the one above it is solved.
