Poople #84: PEAR to POOP

November 6, 2025 · Easy · par 5 · updated October 1, 2026

One shortest path is PEAR → BEAR → BOAR → BOOR → BOOP → POOP. That is 5 moves, and the par stored next to PEAR in the client is 5.

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

Each change

  1. PEAR → BEAR: letter 1 changes from P to B.
  2. BEAR → BOAR: letter 2 changes from E to O.
  3. BOAR → BOOR: letter 3 changes from A to O.
  4. BOOR → BOOP: letter 4 changes from R to P.
  5. BOOP → POOP: letter 1 changes from B to P.
