Gogen is the Daily Mail's daily letter-placing puzzle. A 5x5 grid has some letters fixed; place the rest so every word on the day's list can be spelled by moving between touching squares.
About Gogen (Daily Mail)
Gogen is one of about thirty puzzles on the Daily Mail games page, free in the browser with ads. Each one opens on a start screen that carries the day's date, and every reader gets the same puzzle that day.
Gogen gives you a 5x5 grid with some letters in place, the remaining letters of the alphabet to place, and a list of words. Every word must be traceable through the grid by moving from letter to letter in any direction, diagonals included. Each letter appears once, so working out where a letter goes means checking which words need it next to which neighbours.
The puzzle opens behind the Daily Mail's consent screen, where you either accept personalised ads or buy an ad-free subscription. It suits readers who like a gogen with their news and want a fresh one every day.

Tips
- Start with letters that appear in many words; their neighbours are tightly constrained.
- A word with two letters that must touch narrows where both can go.
