How to play LinkedIn Crossclimb

Crossclimb is a word ladder with trivia clues. Each rung is a word of the same length, and every word differs from the one above it by a single letter.

First you solve the clues for the middle rungs and drag them into an order where each step changes only one letter. Once the middle of the ladder is complete, the top and bottom rungs unlock and share one combined clue.

If a clue will not come to you, use the ladder itself: the words above and below it limit which letters can change, which often leaves only one real word that fits.
