This is puzzle #173 of the daily run, first published on Thursday, July 23, 2026. The board holds sixteen words and four hidden categories of four, and it is one of the tougher boards. Several words sit plausibly in more than one group, so the ordering matters - solve the category you can prove before the one you can only feel.

You get four mistakes and up to two hints. Nothing is timed against you here - archive puzzles play exactly like the live one, and your result is saved in this browser so you can come back to a board you left half solved.
