Below are a series of Mastermind-like puzzles using letters instead of colors.  Correct answers are words made up of some of the letters provided.   The guesses are shown below followed by “X” for a correct letter in the correct position and “O” for a correct letter out of place.  All letters in the answer word will be different.  Note: don't bring in any extra letters.  All are accounted for.

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
