Friday puzzle

The Four Over

Built from this week’s stories: July 31 - August 5, 2026

Find the four groups of four. Tap four tiles that have something in common, then press Submit.

How to play

All sixteen tiles belong to exactly one group of four. Every puzzle has one solution.
You get four mistakes. A wrong guess uses one, and the dots below the board show what’s left.
“One away” means three of the four you picked do belong together.
A solved group locks to the top of the board. The lighter its colour, the easier it was meant to be, so the darkest group is the trickiest.
Shuffle rearranges the tiles, which often helps you see a group. Deselect all clears your picks.
Solve it and you can post your result to the leaderboard. Fewest mistakes wins, and time only settles ties.
