Word Salad tips for tomorrow

  • List the theme first. Write down everything the hint could refer to before you touch the grid.
  • Scan for rare letters. A Q, X or Z narrows the possible words immediately.
  • Check the corners. Corner letters have only three neighbours, so words through them are constrained.
