good one! very hard (for me at least) to figure out.
Very clever and very hard, yet not impossible to solve, although I was unable to. Good job on this one.
yes not easy to figure out. hardly anyone would think out of the box. but then again, the purpose of these are to think out of the box. but whoever would try thinking in a prism, or a sphere, when boxes are so easy, yet answers from them are so limited. what nonsense i talking
Great Teaser! Very hard to solve!
This is Great!

Impossible to figure this out, at least to me. Sorry.
Tricky!!
most excellent teaser. i didn't get it.
Now, if the list had been vertical with plus signs next to each, I might've gotten it.
Good one. I was thinking they were the "end" of something, but I was way off.
lol fun
I was completely clueless You got me! Good job!
I went at this one the exact opposite way. I dropped a letter and got oral, fiend, pot, and then I got stuck. This was a real toughie, but liked it.
Took me about 20 seconds to realize I had to add a letter to each and get new words. Excellent puzzle as it depends on sounding out words.
