Word Ladder
Turn the start word into the target word, changing one letter at a time.
How to play
- You're given a start word and a target word of the same length.
- Change exactly one letter to make a new, real word.
- Repeat, one letter per step, working toward the target.
- Every rung must be a valid dictionary word.

How you earn
Reaching the target within the optimal step count + 2 unlocks the claim.
Tip
Look at which letters already match the target and change the others first — but keep every step a real word.
