Poople #269: SNUG to POOP

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

One shortest path is SNUG → SLUG → SLOG → SLOP → PLOP → POOP. That is 5 moves, and the par stored next to SNUG in the client is 5.

I walked SNUG forward one letter at a time on the 2,398-word graph. Alphabetical neighbor order produced SNUG → SLUG → SLOG → SLOP → PLOP → POOP. I am publishing that route because the length matches the client's par.

Each change

  1. SNUG → SLUG: letter 2 changes from N to L.
  2. SLUG → SLOG: letter 3 changes from U to O.
  3. SLOG → SLOP: letter 4 changes from G to P.
  4. SLOP → PLOP: letter 1 changes from S to P.
  5. PLOP → POOP: letter 2 changes from L to O.
