About this quiz

A word ladder turns one word into another a single letter at a time. Here every rung has a clue, and the word above tells you all but one of the letters.

  • There are 15 rungs, so the ladder makes 14 one letter changes.
  • Each rung has its own clock of 30 seconds. When it runs out the word is shown and the next clue appears.
  • Letters never move: a step swaps one letter for another and leaves the rest where they are.
