The answer for Monday's puzzle is:
HIDE
The rest of the ladder at the top of the page stays hidden until you tap a rung, so you can check this word without giving away the others.
Why HIDE fits
If you've already solved SIDE, change its first letter from S to H. As the top word, HIDE unlocks last in the game, after the middle rungs are in order.
