Squeezy Is Not So Easy!

For those who enjoy daily word games in the vein of Wordle, Strands, or Connections, I found one recently that's different and fun, called Squeezy.

Basically, you have a selection of words on the right-hand side – such as BITER, CAD, ONCE, and RETIRE; and a selection of tiles on the lefthand side: say, E, R, T, U. You need to select those tiles on the lefthand side and put them in between the letters of the words on the right-hand side to form a new word.

So, using those tiles, the answers might be BITTER, CARD, OUNCE, and RETIREE.

The filled-in tiles all spell a word in their order . . . so, in this case, TRUE.

Each puzzle consists of three rounds (with the third round having one or more words that requires multiple tiles). The three resultant clues have some connection that isn't required to "solve" the puzzle but is fun to think about.

It's an interesting game that makes me realize how many words are close to other words but off by one letter.

If that sounds interesting, trying today's puzzle is just a click away!
