How Letter Boxed works
Twelve letters sit around a square — three per side. Build words by connecting letters, but consecutive letters can never come from the same side. Each new word must start with the last letter of the previous one, and you win by using all twelve letters. The par is the NYT's own word count — beating it is the real flex. Play at nytimes.com.
