Between the Words: Word Ladder

Can you turn SODA into COLD, one small step at a time? Between the Words is a word ladder puzzle: every puzzle gives you a start word and an end word, and you fill in the words that link them.

HOW TO PLAY

• Each step changes only a few letters – the number beside each word tells you exactly how many.

• Work down from the top, up from the bottom, or both.

• Tap a row and type your word on the keyboard.

• Some ladders have more than one solution.

• Stuck? Tap HELP to reveal a word.

Some steps change a single letter; others ask you to swap two or three at once, which keeps every ladder surprising.

Word ladders are a classic word game – Lewis Carroll invented them as "Doublets". If you enjoy crosswords, word chains, anagrams or brain teasers, you'll feel right at home. Build your vocabulary and spelling and keep your mind sharp, a few minutes at a time.
