Where agree turns up in the game
agree is the word under test in one puzzle, at Tier 1, Foothills. It also sits on the board as one of the three wrong tiles in three other puzzles, where the answer is a different word entirely.
The puzzles where agree is the trap
- hideverb, Tier 2, Treeline. The answer there is conceal, in the sense "prevent from being seen or discovered", and agree is one of the three tiles that lose.
- differverb, Tier 3, Ridgeline. The answer there is disagree, in the sense "be of different opinions", and agree is one of the three tiles that lose.
- suitverb, Tier 4, High Camp. The answer there is befit, in the sense "accord or comport with", so agree is there to be ruled out.
