About Gap Garden

Gap Garden builds a small lattice of four garden words that cross one another, then takes one letter out of each. Because the words cross, a missing letter has to satisfy two words at once, and the crossing is what makes the gap solvable from either direction.

Every entry carries a single-word clue rather than a definition, so the reading is quick and the solving is about the letters. Three puzzles follow and the slips are shared across all of them.
