Where furious turns up in the game

furious is the word under test in two puzzles, spread across two difficulty tiers. 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 furious is the trap

contentadjective, Tier 1, Foothills. The answer there is satisfied, in the sense "in a state of peaceful satisfaction", and furious is one of the three tiles that lose.
coarseadjective, Tier 3, Ridgeline. The answer there is harsh, in the sense "of textures that are rough to the touch or substances consisting of relatively large particles", and furious is on the board beside it.
roaringadjective, Tier 3, Ridgeline. The answer there is booming, in the sense "very lively and profitable", so furious is there to be ruled out.

The same bank, read from both sides

furious is an answer in 2 puzzles and a wrong tile in 3. That is how the bank is built, and it is why guessing by vibe stops working around tier three.
