How to Solve Bubble Word Jam Level 398 — Full Solution
- Clear `GENESIS / ORIGIN / DAWN / BEGINNING` first.
- Complete `ACID / ARSENIC / CYAN / CYANIDE / POISON`, then reduce the seed and tree branches.
- Form `GEMINI / COPILOT / CLAUDE / GROK` around `5/12`, after the board has already widened.
- Resolve `PIPE / DRAIN / GUTTER / HOLE`, then `SWEAR / VOW / PROMISE / PLEDGE`.
- Keep `CHEMISE / CORSET / CAMISOLE / GARTER` separate from `PAVEMENT / CURB / CUL-DE-SAC`.
- Finish the nonsense and road groups, then add `CHIP` to the waiting `CALIFORNIA / TECHNOLOGY / STARTUP` bubble for the final clear.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Mixing PIPE or DRAIN into the pavement and curb route.
- Forcing the AI names before the recorded beginnings-and-poison opener has cleared.
