Read the board, then use only the hint you need
Match several distinctive words before following the groups. Regional boards can change spelling or a category label. Tile positions can change, so compare distinctive words rather than their placement.
What to look for on this board
There are 6 opening categories: Colors, Time, Animals, Fruits, Planets, Sweets. Begin with the category whose four members feel most literal, then reassess the words left behind.
Watch the bridge tiles: Cake. These words become category tiles later, which explains why they may seem to fit more than one idea at first.
Hint 1 Show category directions
Hint 2 Show one anchor tile per group
- Colors: Black
- Time: Day
- Animals: Cat
- Fruits: Fig
- Planets: Venus
- Sweets: Apple Pie
