Colorwood Associations Level 78 answers

Level 78 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 78 pattern

What to look for on this board

There are 6 opening categories: Japanese Cities, Baking Utensils, Fishing Equipment, Chinese Cities, River Animals, Sweet Things. Begin with the category whose four members feel most literal, then reassess the words left behind.

Watch the bridge tiles: Beijing, Beaver, Donut, Cake. These words become category tiles later, which explains why they may seem to fit more than one idea at first.
