The Rules of the Game — Change One Letter

Change one word into another by changing exactly one letter.
  • Addition
    word → world
  • Removal
    read → red
  • Substitution
    told → fold
  • Any of the above plus rearrangement
    real → lake ( r → k, then rearrange)
  • No limit on word length
    at → a
  • Rearrangement alone is not allowed
    deal → lead
  • Single words only (even if the two words often go together)
    However, hyphenated words are customarily allowed.
  • Proper nouns are not allowed
    tease → Texas
    Allowed, however, if it is also a regular noun, e.g., eve, mike, job,
    and customarily allowed in derivative form, e.g., Texan.
  • If we reach a dead end (consensus that no new word can be found), go back to the most recent word that offers a way forward. (Dead ends are extremely rare. Be patient; usually someone will find an unexpected way out.)
