Level 390 answers with regional versions and a clear solving order.
US & GB boards
Solve before you reveal
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.
How this level unfoldsThe opening board contains 6 four-word groups. Each solved group becomes a category tile. Some of those new tiles then open the second layer, so do not expect every answer below to appear on the starting board.
Level 390 pattern

Watch the bridge tiles: Donut, Pasta, Toast, Pizza, Guitar, Moby-dick, Meat, Mushroom, Villain. These words become category tiles later, which explains why they may seem to fit more than one idea at first.
