About this ladder
- The shape
- TOWEL and BOXED differ in only 3 places and par is 3, so this is as direct as a ladder can be: every single move fixes a letter that was wrong.
- The wide rung
- The par route passes through BOWED, where 17 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
- We rate this one gentle: few forks, little backtracking and everyday vocabulary throughout. Par time was 0:45.
