Poople #137: GORY to POOP

December 29, 2025 · Easy · par 5 · updated October 1, 2026

One shortest path is GORY → GORE → PORE → POME → POMP → POOP. That is 5 moves, and the par stored next to GORY in the client is 5.

I walked GORY forward one letter at a time on the 2,398-word graph. Alphabetical neighbor order produced GORY → GORE → PORE → POME → POMP → POOP. I am publishing that route because the length matches the client's par.

Each change

  1. GORY → GORE: letter 4 changes from Y to E.
  2. GORE → PORE: letter 1 changes from G to P.
  3. PORE → POME: letter 3 changes from R to M.
  4. POME → POMP: letter 4 changes from E to P.
  5. POMP → POOP: letter 3 changes from M to O.
