Each puzzle contains 16 words, and each group of words is divided into four categories. These sets can include anything from book titles to software to country names, and so on. Even if several words seem to match together, there is only one correct answer. If a player guesses all four correct words in a set, those words are removed from the board. If you guess wrong, it counts as a mistake: players can make up to four mistakes until the end of the game.
