Where free turns up in the game
free is the word under test in two puzzles, spread across Tier 3, Ridgeline. It also sits on the board as one of the three wrong tiles in seven other puzzles, where the answer is a different word entirely.
4 of the 7 puzzles where free is the trap
- countrynoun, Tier 1, Foothills. The answer there is land, in the sense "the people who live in a nation or country", and free is on the board beside it.
- excuseverb, Tier 1, Foothills. The answer there is explain, in the sense "serve as a reason or cause or justification of", so free is there to be ruled out.
- givenadjective, Tier 1, Foothills. The answer there is granted, in the sense "acknowledged as a supposition", so free is there to be ruled out.
- excuseverb, Tier 3, Ridgeline. The answer there is condone, in the sense "excuse, overlook, or make allowances for", so free is there to be ruled out.
