Alphabet Puzzle
So my daughter's rescue-dog-themed birthday party is tomorrow. And like the amazing, awesome mom I am, I have devised an entire escape room for the kids in my stepdaughter's old bedroom. I have props, a storyline, clues, the whole deal. Except, like the lazy bastard I am, I have put off a bunch of the stuff until the last second, and now find myself in a conundrum.
There is a 5-letter alphabet lock being used in the room. I've just realized that the word I'd planned to set it to (DOGGO) isn't possible with the available letters. How I failed to check this earlier, I don't know. Here are the letters on the lock: A A T C K B O A S L C E C N D D L D E Y E I E Y N J H I A A L U L L E M R N I H S N R T S T T S O _ I need a 5-letter dog-themed word that ISN'T "leash" (because that's used elsewhere in the room.) One letter from each column. Suggestions? |
