Room #101 asks you to fit 8 words, from 3 to 6 letters long, into a 8 by 7 grid.

  • 3 letters: 4
  • 4 letters: 1
  • 5 letters: 2
  • 6 letters: 1

Start with VELVET: it is the only word with 6 letters, so it has exactly one place.

With so few words, every placement prints letters into the others; follow the crossings.

A short list: 6–8 words, none longer than six letters.

Where does the longest word go?

VELVET goes across from row 3, column 1.
