How to build PLOTTER from the tiles
In 7 Little Words you don't type the answer — you assemble it from the puzzle's shared tile bank, and every tile is used exactly once across all seven answers. Puzzle 1's tiles for September 5, 2026 are:
TW · ID · DLI · NG · PL · OT · TER · PAC · HYD · ERM · PIL · FER · BIL · LY · IB · ER · IA · SZC · ZEC · IN
PLOTTER is built by combining the tiles PL · OT · TER in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in PLOTTER early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
