swing
Why it connects
A swing is a back-and-forth or sweeping movement. In baseball, a batter swings a bat to try to hit the ball. The action ties the general idea of movement to a familiar part of the sport.
ROUND 2
Find the strongest link.
Give me a gentle hint
Picture someone connected with a college or university.
A little more help · hint 2
This person works toward a qualification and may live on campus. There are seven letters.
A little more help · hint 3
The reference link begins with S.

THE STRONGEST LINK
student
Why it connects
A student studies toward a degree. A resident student also lives at the institution, often in campus accommodation. Reading resident as a description of where a person lives connects both clues through university life.
ROUND 3
Find the strongest link.
Give me a gentle hint
Look around the home for a shared practical purpose.
A little more help · hint 2
Think of floor-cleaning appliances, including automated ones. The link has six letters.

THE STRONGEST LINK
vacuum
Why it connects
A robot vacuum is an automated floor cleaner. Steam belongs to the same cleaning context: combination steam-and-vacuum cleaners use steam treatment alongside suction. This is a shared appliance context, rather than a fixed phrase made from all three words.
ROUND 4
Find the strongest link.
Give me a gentle hint
Think about why someone might be invited somewhere.
A little more help · hint 2
An event can determine the time, the people invited, and what they wear. The word has eight letters.
A little more help · hint 3
The reference link begins with O.

THE STRONGEST LINK
occasion

An occasion can take place in the evening, bring together invited guests, and call for particular clothes. The event provides a common setting for all three clues, whether it is a formal celebration or a casual gathering.
ROUND 5
Find the strongest link.
Give me a gentle hint
Stay close to the idea of looking for something.
A little more help · hint 2
Think of a purposeful or adventurous search. The word has five letters.

The reference link begins with Q.
Reveal the strongest link
THE STRONGEST LINK
quest
Why it connects
A quest is a search or pursuit, often with a particular goal. It can suggest a longer or more adventurous effort than an everyday search, but the central meaning of trying to find something is shared.
