CUT OFF

HOW TO PLAY

Clue. Context. Answer.

The cropped word is only your first clue. Your real goal is to use the whole scene to infer a different answer.

  1. 01

    Read the crop.

    Work out the partially visible word in the image.

  2. 02

    Use the surroundings.

    Notice the objects and setting connected to that word.

  3. 03

    Infer the answer.

    Type it into the letter slots. Green letters are in the correct position. You have five guesses, three optional hints, and a separate cutoff reveal.
