WANE is the answer to "Become less visible, like the moon" in LinkedIn Crossclimb on Tuesday, October 6, 2026. It has four letters and sits on rung 1, just under the top word.
"Become less visible, like the moon" answer
The answer for Tuesday's puzzle is:
WANE
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 WANE fits
If you've already solved WAVE, change its third letter from V to N. The top word, WINE, unlocks once the middle rungs are in order, and it differs from WANE only in the second letter, I instead of A.
