Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The `52 MOVES`, `0/16` board sits under a purple octopus and later shows orange `+5` bubbles, with visible anxiety `FEARFUL / AVOIDANT / ANXIOUS`, lottery `TICKET / JACKPOT / NUMBERS / DRAW`, institutions `HOSPITAL / BANK / LIBRARY / MUSEUM`, and cocktail-garnish words among the long field.
- Goal
- Complete sixteen named families, including every late member, and reproduce the final force clear at `7 MOVES` before the success tally counts down to `0`.
- Opening
- Clear anxiety, lottery, institutions, cocktail garnishes, woodwind reed parts, and personal-care words first.

- OYSTER belongs to mushrooms, ARRAY to programming, and CALYX/PETIOLE to plant anatomy.
- Mechanics
- A sixteen-family purple-octopus board with visible `+5` bubbles; the final clear reaches `16/16` at `7 MOVES`, then the success tally counts down to `0`.
