How TOLD 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 26, 2026, with “Relayed, as a story” highlighted:
| Rung | Word | Clue |
|---|---|---|
| Top word | KEEP | (unlocks last — fits the letters above the ladder) |
| Clue rung | KEEN | Very interested in something |
| Clue rung | TEEN | Someone older than twelve but younger than twenty |
| Clue rung | TEED | Ready to be hit, as a golf ball |
| Clue rung | TOED | Open-___ shoes |
| Clue rung | TOLD ← this clue | Relayed, as a story |

TOLD sits at rung 5: from TOED you change the third letter of TOED from E to L to reach TOLD, then change the first letter of TOLD from T to C to get COLD. Each neighbouring rung is exactly one letter away, which is how you can derive TOLD even if the clue alone stumps you — solve a neighbour and the single-letter rule points straight here.
