How to solve this answer
Types Of
Each clue is a member or example of the group the answer names. You are naming the set, not another example.
Espresso, cappuccino, and mocha are all coffee drinks. The answer names the group they belong to.
Easy
Clues link quickly with common associations. Most solvers name the answer within the first two or three reveals.
Nature
Animals, plants, weather, landscapes, and outdoor words. Clues may describe a habitat, a species group, or a force of weather.
Types Of and Things Associated With look similar from the outside. The difference is membership. In Types Of, each clue literally is a kind of the answer. In Associated, the clues merely hang around the topic.
Pick the narrowest honest label that covers all five clues. Too broad and the game rejects it. Too narrow and clue five falls outside the fence.
