3 Tips for Monkey Wrench

01

The board is the constraint

Every answer here is built from what the puzzle shows you and nothing else, so reading the board first eliminates more candidates than any amount of guessing.

02

Clear the certain answers first

Each answer you are sure of constrains the ones around it. Spending the opening minute on those beats spending it on the entry that stopped you.

03

Neighbouring puzzles help

Difficulty moves gradually, so the puzzles either side of this one reuse its patterns and are usually the most useful hint available.

How to Solve a Monkey Wrench Puzzle

The order that clears a Monkey Wrench puzzle fastest.

STEP 01

Read what you are given

Letters, clues or grid — the constraint on screen is the whole puzzle. Count it before you start.

STEP 02

Anchor with the easy entries

Short and obvious answers hand you letters that narrow everything they touch.

STEP 03

Work outwards

Each confirmed answer makes its neighbours easier. Follow the chain rather than jumping around the board.
