Build a five-letter word chain
This is a word-domino challenge, not a hidden-word puzzle. The final letter of one valid five-letter word becomes the required first letter of the next word.
How a chain continues
Your opening word can be any accepted five-letter word. If it ends in E, the next word must begin with E. Its final letter then sets the opening letter for the following word. The board shows the required letter, but every entry must still have exactly five letters and belong to the game dictionary.
Example
“PLANE” ends with E, so “EARTH” is a valid next step because it starts with E. EARTH ends with H, so your third word must begin with H. The game is about finding a viable continuation each time.
Useful habit
Whenever you have a choice, avoid finishing on an awkward letter. Common final letters usually leave you with a larger set of possible next words and make a longer chain easier to sustain.
