How Crossclimb works
The ladder
You get 7 words of 4 letters, each with a trivia clue. Neighbouring words differ by exactly one letter, which is what makes it a climb rather than a quiz. Today the changing letter sits at positions 1, 2, 3 and 4, so watch those columns as you solve.
The bracketed pair
The first and last rungs share one two-part clue: together they form a single answer, and either word may sit at the top or the bottom. That is why the opening clue reads as a riddle — it is describing both ends at once.
How to approach it
- Solve the middle rungs first — they are ordinary definitions, while the bracketed pair is deliberately ambiguous.
- Write down the letter that changes under each rung. Two rungs changing the same position is a strong sign your ladder is right.
- If a word fits its clue but differs by two letters from its neighbour, it is the wrong word. The one-letter rule is absolute.
FAQ
What is LinkedIn Crossclimb?
Crossclimb is a daily word game on LinkedIn Games. You get a ladder of hidden words, each revealed by a trivia clue, and every word differs from its neighbours by exactly one letter. The top and bottom words start out of order — reordering the ladder is the final step.
When does the new Crossclimb puzzle go live?
LinkedIn publishes a new Crossclimb every day at midnight Pacific time. This page is rebuilt right after the reset, so the puzzle number, clues and ladder above are for the current day.
How is the answer on this page produced?
The clues and rungs are read from the official LinkedIn Crossclimb puzzle for the date shown. The letter-by-letter comparison — which position changes between neighbouring rungs — is computed here from those words, so you can check it against the board yourself.
Are spoilers hidden?
Yes. Every clue is visible, but each word stays behind its own reveal button — uncover one rung at a time, or reveal the whole ladder once you have finished.
