JERK, YANK, WRENCH, TUG.
COPY, SAVE, FILE, PRINTdangit, I clicked FILE instead of FIND.
Resubmitted with the grouping I intended, and thats a hit too.
FILE, SAW, HAMMER, and LEVEL are my tools.

And thats a solve.
Youll see a game board with 16 tiles, each with one word or phrase.
Your job is to select a group of four tiles that have something in common.
Select four items and hit the Submit button.
If you guessed correctly, the category and color will be revealed.
(Yellow is easiest, followed by green, then blue, then purple.)
