I saw someone on here recently say they like to do the puzzle without looking at the clues, and I've started doing that on and off too, it changes the game in an interesting way.
Great feedback on the “type of” clues. I’ll need to noodle on that and see if there’s a clearer way to express it. Maybe I should just be doing blanks… e.g. for “sun” it could be “___ dress, ___day, or ___ flower”
