About Wend #103
- Wend #103 hides 5 words in a 7×7 letter grid.
- The words are 5 to 9 letters long.
- It has 5 words, more than the average of 4.6 across the previous 7 puzzles.
- The 7×7 grid has 14 holes across 5 rows (4 inside the grid and 10 along the edges), leaving 35 letter squares in a pattern that is symmetric left to right and top to bottom.
- The five words run to five, six, seven, eight, and nine letters, so no two share a length.
- Start with the 9-letter word, which uses 9 of the 35 letters and has to bend around the inner holes.
- Four letter squares have only one neighboring letter, so a word must start or end there.
