Poople #239: REAM to POOP

April 10, 2026 · Easy · par 5 · updated October 1, 2026

One shortest path is REAM → LEAM → LOAM → LOOM → LOOP → POOP. That is 5 moves, and the par stored next to REAM in the client is 5.

I walked REAM forward one letter at a time on the 2,398-word graph. Alphabetical neighbor order produced REAM → LEAM → LOAM → LOOM → LOOP → POOP. I am publishing that route because the length matches the client's par.

Each change

  1. REAM → LEAM: letter 1 changes from R to L.
  2. LEAM → LOAM: letter 2 changes from E to O.
  3. LOAM → LOOM: letter 3 changes from A to O.
  4. LOOM → LOOP: letter 4 changes from M to P.
  5. LOOP → POOP: letter 1 changes from L to P.
