Room #315 asks you to fit 15 words, from 3 to 9 letters long, into a 12 by 12 grid.

  • three-letter words: 2
  • four-letter words: 2
  • five-letter words: 4
  • six-letter words: 1
  • seven-letter words: 3
  • eight-letter words: 1
  • nine-letter words: 2

Start with FLOODING: it is the only word with 8 letters, so it has exactly one place.

Big grids are solved from the long words outward; leave the many three-letter words for the end.

Fourteen to seventeen words of three to nine letters.
