About this ladder
- The detour
- RHYME and CHOSE differ in only 3 places, but par is 5. That is 2 moves that do not bring you directly closer to the target, which is where this one catches people out.
- The verdict
- We rate this one gentle: few forks, little backtracking and everyday vocabulary throughout. Par time was 1:10.
