How to play Letter Boxed

Letter Boxed is the New York Times word puzzle played on a square with three letters on each side — twelve letters in all. Make words by connecting letters, but you can never use two letters from the same side in a row. Each new word must start with the last letter of the previous word, and to win you must use every letter at least once. The NYT sets a “par” target; the solution above meets it, but many other answers work too.

Letter Boxed is a free daily word game from The New York Times, alongside Wordle, Connections, Strands and the Spelling Bee. Play it in the NYT Games app or on the web. This is an independent reference — not affiliated with The New York Times.
