US V1 & US V2 & GB version

Solve before you reveal

Read the board, then use only the hint you need

Check the version label and match several distinctive words before following the groups. 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, and 9 later groups use those new tiles.
Level 870 pattern

What to look for on this board

There are 6 opening categories: Common Insects, Vegetables, Large Mammals, Pastries, Analog Media, Film Genres. Begin with the category whose four members feel most literal, then reassess the words left behind.

Watch the bridge tiles: Mushrooms, Cucumber, Onion, Elephant, Donut, Cassette, Vinyl, Comedy, Horror. These words become category tiles later, which explains why they may seem to fit more than one idea at first.
