  1. Anagrams X 4

    If you get one word, you can get them all. The easest word to unscramble was Altiitude.

  2. Not as easy if you get the wrong word first. I had a few false starts, like SILENCER instead of RECLINES. Luckily the solution checks itself.

    Although it took a little logic to realize it isn’t as hard as it seems.
