Poople #78: GONE to POOP

October 31, 2025 · Easy · par 5 · updated October 1, 2026

One shortest path is GONE → BONE → BONK → BOOK → BOOP → POOP. That is 5 moves, and the par stored next to GONE in the client is 5.

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

Each change

  1. GONE → BONE: letter 1 changes from G to B.
  2. BONE → BONK: letter 4 changes from E to K.
  3. BONK → BOOK: letter 3 changes from N to O.
  4. BOOK → BOOP: letter 4 changes from K to P.
  5. BOOP → POOP: letter 1 changes from B to P.
