How to build CLICK 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 October 1, 2026 are:
REMI · ND · CL · ICK · PERP · ETUA · TES · MICR · OPHO · NE · AB · ECED · ARI · AN · FERN · ANDO · BA · RI · ST · AS
CLICK is built by combining the tiles CL · ICK in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in CLICK early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
