Weaver is a word game that challenges players to transform one word into another by changing one letter at a time, with each intermediate step also being a valid word. The objective is to find the shortest possible path between the starting word and the target word.

Here’s a breakdown of how Weaver typically works:

  1. Starting and Target Words: You begin with two words of the same length. For example, “cat” and “dog.”

  2. One-Letter Changes: You need to change one letter at a time to get from the starting word to the target word. Each word you create along the way must be a valid dictionary word.

  3. Steps: The challenge is to find the shortest sequence of valid words that connects the starting word to the target word. For instance, to transform “cat” into “dog,” you might go through the sequence: “cat” → “cot” → “dot” → “dog.”

  4. Variations: There are different variations of Weaver. Some may include additional rules, such as limiting the number of steps or allowing only words that fit certain categories.

Weaver is often enjoyed as a puzzle or a competitive game, stimulating both vocabulary skills and strategic thinking. It’s a fun way to test your word knowledge and problem-solving abilities.
