Poople #133: WELT to POOP

December 25, 2025 · Easy · par 5 · updated October 1, 2026

One shortest path is WELT → BELT → BOLT → BOOT → BOOP → POOP. That is 5 moves, and the par stored next to WELT in the client is 5.

I walked WELT forward one letter at a time on the 2,398-word graph. Alphabetical neighbor order produced WELT → BELT → BOLT → BOOT → BOOP → POOP. I am publishing that route because the length matches the client's par.

Each change

  1. WELT → BELT: letter 1 changes from W to B.
  2. BELT → BOLT: letter 2 changes from E to O.
  3. BOLT → BOOT: letter 3 changes from L to O.
  4. BOOT → BOOP: letter 4 changes from T to P.
  5. BOOP → POOP: letter 1 changes from B to P.
