POCKET EXPERIMENT 279

Letter Switchback

Link FOUR different three-letter corner words into one trail, starting at the gold C. Trace orthogonally adjacent letters; each word must turn 90°, not run straight. Submit consumes its first two tiles but leaves the final letter as the required start of the next word. Dictionary: CAT, TAR, RAT, ART, ARC, CAR, ROD, DOG, GOD. Plan the next endpoint before committing. Clear fixes a draft; Undo restores the last word. No timer or defeat.

Tap tiles, or use Tab and Enter. Arrow keys move board focus.
