Why This is the Correct Crossclimb #771 Solution?

The five middle clue answers are SPAN, SPIN, SKIP, SPAR, and SKIN. When sorted into a valid one-letter ladder, they become SPAR → SPAN → SPIN → SKIN → SKIP. The shared locked-row clue points to the compound word STARSHIP, and the only order that fits the ladder is STAR at the top and SHIP at the bottom.

From → ToWord ChangeWhy it Works
STARSPART -> POnly the second letter changes, connecting the unlocked top word to the first middle answer.
SPARSPANR -> NOnly the last letter changes, creating another valid word.
SPANSPINA -> IOnly the third letter changes, keeping the sorted middle ladder valid.
SPINSKINP -> KOnly the second letter changes, keeping the sorted middle ladder valid.
SKINSKIPN -> POnly the last letter changes, creating another valid word.
SKIPSHIPK -> HOnly the second letter changes, finishing at the locked bottom word.

Final Ladder: STAR → SPAR → SPAN → SPIN → SKIN → SKIP → SHIP

How to Solve Crossclimb #771

This puzzle is easiest if you treat it as a staged solve: clue answers first, ladder order second, locked words last.

  • Solve the five middle clues on their own: SPAN, SPIN, SKIP, SPAR, and SKIN.
  • Reorder those five words so each neighboring pair changes by exactly one letter. That gives you SPAR → SPAN → SPIN → SKIN → SKIP.
  • Use the shared locked-row clue next. The compound sci-fi vehicle is STARSHIP, so the two locked words must be STAR and SHIP.
  • Test which order fits the ladder. STAR connects to SPAR by one letter, and SKIP connects to SHIP by one letter, so STAR goes on top and SHIP goes on the bottom.
  • Verify every step in the full ladder before finishing: STAR → SPAR → SPAN → SPIN → SKIN → SKIP → SHIP.

The key move is spotting the middle sequence SPAR → SPAN → SPIN → SKIN → SKIP, which then makes STAR and SHIP fall neatly into place as the locked endpoints.

The top + bottom rows = A compound word for a vehicle in a sci-fi movie. Keep in mind: The first word may be at the bottom. - STAR + SHIP
The compound word is STARSHIP. The clue warns you to consider both word orders, but STAR + SHIP is the real compound, and it also fits the ladder because STAR connects to SPAR and SHIP connects to SKIP by one letter each.
