About this ladder
- The detour
- TRAIN and GIANT differ in only 4 places, but par is 6. That is 2 moves that do not bring you directly closer to the target, which is where this one catches people out.
- The wide rung
- The par route passes through BRAIN, where 8 different single-letter changes all make real words - more than at any other rung on this ladder. Most of them lead nowhere useful.
- The verdict
- A standard ladder: some real choices along the way, nothing exotic in the vocabulary. Par time was 1:35.
