Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The `48 MOVES`, `0/12` board rings `NEWSPAPER` and `PLUMBER`, pins a campus bubble, and already shows faucet words `SINK / DRAIN / TAP / WASH` beside deep-fried and assessment starters.
- Goal
- Use each released word to close the already assembled publication, campus, and trades families.
- Opening
- Clear faucet, deep-fried food, performing-screen terms, and assessments in that order.
- Danger Zone
- NEWSPAPER belongs with MAGAZINE/GALLERY/ALBUM; DORM with campus; PLUMBER with trades.
- Mechanics
- The lock sequence closes publication at `5/12`, campus at `6/12`, and trades at `7/12`; the run reaches `12/12`.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where does NEWSPAPER belong in Level 488?
The released NEWSPAPER completes magazine, gallery, and album. Do not spend it in a generic building group. DORM then closes campus, and PLUMBER closes trades.
What are the final two families?
Service, rental, employment, and insurance clear as contracts; mast, hull, rudder, and keel finish as boat parts.
