Board snapshot

A 21-cell route puzzle with four path lengths

Wend No. 29 uses 21 open cells and 4 blocked cells across a 5-by-5 grid. The four routes have lengths of 3, 5, 6, and 7, so the short route can give you an early foothold while the longer routes account for most of the board. Rows 1, 2, 4, and 5 each have four open cells; row 3 has five.

The board repeats N and O three times each, while D, H, R, and W each appear twice. That means a first letter alone is not always enough to settle a route. Check the next orthogonally adjacent cell before committing, especially when you are working across the full middle row or along a vertical edge.

There are 8 open cells with at most two open orthogonal neighbors. That is simply a count of open neighboring cells on this board, not a result of any completed route. The first letters of the four paths are O, R, W, and D; use those as a light sorting aid if you want to stay ahead of the full LinkedIn Wend answer.

How to work this board

Use the short path to protect space for the longer ones

Start by looking for the three-cell option rather than scanning every possible chain. It occupies one uninterrupted edge-row stretch, which lets you remove a small, definite piece of the board from consideration. Once you have that piece, pause and look at what remains instead of immediately chasing another familiar-looking word.

For the five- and six-cell paths, trace one letter at a time and count each change of direction. The five-cell route travels through four rows but only two columns, while the six-cell route moves through four rows and two columns in a different part of the grid. Those footprints help you test a candidate without exposing the whole LinkedIn Wend answer at once.

Save the seven-cell route for a stronger nudge. Its start is on the right edge and it changes direction twice, matching the board hint. When you do reveal a route, compare every step against the letters on your own board; a valid move goes orthogonally to the next open cell, never diagonally across a gap or blocked square.

Spoiler walkthrough

Complete routes for Wend No. 29

Open this section when you want the complete LinkedIn Wend answer. The four entries stay in the supplied order and together assign all 21 open cells.

Open answer 1 route analysis

The three-cell edge route

The first answer is the compact three-letter route. Trace OWN from row 5, column 1 to row 5, column 3: the letters read O, then W, then N. Both moves go right, so this path has no turn and remains on row 5 throughout. It uses three edge cells and begins at a corner cell, making it a useful clean check when you want one confirmed route without opening much of the board.

For a cell-by-cell comparison, use this exact sequence: 1 at row 5, column 1; 2 at row 5, column 2; 3 at row 5, column 3. The start and end each have two open orthogonal neighbors on the original board. After this route is assigned, 18 open cells remain for the other three answers.

Open answer 2 route analysis

A five-letter route through the right side

ROUND begins at row 2, column 4. Go down to row 3, column 4 for O, turn right to row 3, column 5 for U, then go down through row 4, column 5 for N and row 5, column 5 for D. The path makes two turns: one when it leaves column 4 and one when it resumes its downward run. It reaches across four rows while using only two columns.

Check the complete route in order: 1 at row 2, column 4; 2 at row 3, column 4; 3 at row 3, column 5; 4 at row 4, column 5; 5 at row 5, column 5. The final D has one open orthogonal neighbor in the untouched grid, while the R start has four. With OWN and ROUND assigned in this stated sequence, 13 open cells remain.

Open answer 3 route analysis

A six-letter path rising on the left

WREATH starts at row 4, column 1 and first moves right to row 4, column 2. From there, turn up to row 3, column 2, left to row 3, column 1, then continue up through row 2, column 1 to row 1, column 1. The route spells W, R, E, A, T, H and changes direction three times, so it is worth tracing slowly rather than treating its repeated letters as a shortcut.

Here is the full coordinate record: 1 at row 4, column 1; 2 at row 4, column 2; 3 at row 3, column 2; 4 at row 3, column 1; 5 at row 2, column 1; 6 at row 1, column 1. This route visits four edge cells and ends at an H whose original open-neighbor count is one. After the first three listed answers are assigned, seven open cells are left.

Open answer 4 route analysis

The seven-letter remaining route

DOLPHIN starts at row 2, column 5. Move up to row 1, column 5, then left across row 1 to row 1, column 4 and row 1, column 3. Turn down and follow column 3 through row 2, column 3, row 3, column 3, and row 4, column 3. This longest entry has two turns: the first at the top-row O and the second at the P in row 1, column 3.

Use this exact transcript to confirm every letter: 1 at row 2, column 5; 2 at row 1, column 5; 3 at row 1, column 4; 4 at row 1, column 3; 5 at row 2, column 3; 6 at row 3, column 3; 7 at row 4, column 3. The route spans four rows and three columns, visits four edge cells, and completes the board with no open cells left unassigned.
