“Choose for a role in a play” answer
The Crossclimb answer for “Choose for a role in a play” (Wednesday, July 15, 2026) is:
CAST
You can also reveal it one letter at a time with the tiles above if you'd rather keep some of the challenge.
Why the answer is CAST
From LAST you change the first letter of LAST from L to C to reach CAST, then change the fourth letter of CAST from T to E to get CASE.
How CAST fits the ladder
Crossclimb stacks 7 words where each one changes a single letter from the word above it. Here's the full ladder for July 15, 2026, with “Choose for a role in a play” highlighted:
| Rung | Word | Clue |
|---|---|---|
| Top word | LOST | (unlocks last — fits the letters above the ladder) |
| Clue rung | LAST | Persist over time |
| Clue rung | CAST ← this clue | Choose for a role in a play |
| Clue rung | CASE | “Just in ___” (as a precaution) |
| Clue rung | CAME | Showed up to a party |
| Clue rung | TAME | Not wild, as a household pet |
| Bottom word | TIME | (unlocks last — fits the letters below the ladder) |
CAST sits at rung 2: from LAST you change the first letter of LAST from L to C to reach CAST, then change the fourth letter of CAST from T to E to get CASE. Each neighbouring rung is exactly one letter away, which is how you can derive CAST even if the clue alone stumps you — solve a neighbour and the single-letter rule points straight here.
