SPOTZONE ☀TAKE A SMALL BREAK ↘

Small puzzles.
Big exhale.

A pocket-sized place to notice something, untangle a word, and get back to your day. Take your time. There is no timer.

01 / LOOK A LITTLE CLOSER

One tile took a turn.

All but one of these arrows point the same way. Can you spot the exception?

Show me the answer

Fourth row, third column. That arrow points up and left; the others point up and right.

02 / A LITTLE WORD SHUFFLE

Something to lean into.

W O L P I L

Rearrange these six letters. Hint: a comfortable companion to a nap.

Unshuffle it

PILLOW. All six letters, one soft landing.

03 / WHAT COMES NEXT?

2, 6, 12, 20, …

Here is one possible pattern. What number would you put after 20, and why?

One way to solve it

30. The gaps are 4, 6, 8, then 10. Another way to see it: 1×2, 2×3, 3×4, 4×5, then 5×6.
