Keyboard and screen controls
Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

The letters of GARDEN can be rearranged; the clue “A place where plants grow” identifies GARDEN. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the game’s format in mind.
A useful caution
A different anagram may be a valid word but still not match this clue. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
