Rules & strategy

How to solve Poople

Tips and rules for finding the shortest path to POOP.

Single-letter changes only

Every word you enter must differ from the previous word by exactly one character position. Anagrams and reordering do not count.

Valid dictionary words

Each step must be an accepted four-letter English word in our verified word list. Proper nouns and invalid slang are excluded.

Targeting the double O

POOP requires an identical letter in positions 2 and 3. Working towards words with a central "OO" (like LOOP, COOP, BOOT, POOR) is often the fastest route.

Beating or matching par

Par is computed with unweighted shortest-path search. Solving in fewer moves than par is impossible, but matching par proves an optimal solution.
