How to build RELEASED 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 27, 2026 are:
SKY · DIV · ING · REL · EAS · ED · MEL · EE · UNA · TTAC · HED · SKY · NY · RD · ACQ · UIT · TED · ES · CAP · ES
RELEASED is built by combining the tiles REL · EAS · ED in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in RELEASED early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
