How AIMS 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 31, 2026, with “Goals and objectives” highlighted:
| Rung | Word | Clue |
|---|---|---|
| Top word | FINE | (unlocks last — fits the letters above the ladder) |
| Clue rung | FIRE | Classical element alongside earth, air, and water |
| Clue rung | FIRS | Evergreen trees known for needle-like leaves |
| Clue rung | AIRS | States publicly, as grievances |
| Clue rung | AIMS ← this clue | Goals and objectives |
| Clue rung | ARMS | Body parts attached to the shoulders |
| Bottom word | ARTS | (unlocks last — fits the letters below the ladder) |
AIMS sits at rung 4: from AIRS you change the third letter of AIRS from R to M to reach AIMS, then change the second letter of AIMS from I to R to get ARMS. Each neighbouring rung is exactly one letter away, which is how you can derive AIMS even if the clue alone stumps you — solve a neighbour and the single-letter rule points straight here.
