Where item turns up in the game

item is the word under test in one puzzle, at Tier 2, Treeline. It also sits on the board as one of the three wrong tiles in two other puzzles, where the answer is a different word entirely.

The puzzles where item is the trap

The bank on this page is the bank the game plays from, so item reaches you as a board rather than a definition: the sentence first, four tiles, and the meaning after you choose.

The same bank, read from both sides
