Spotting the Letter G

You'll probably solve G without even trying — a Gas Station, the game's example, is required infrastructure at nearly every highway exit.

If you've stopped for gas even once on your trip, this letter is already solved, which makes it a good one to knock out early and forget about.

Spotting Tip

If you haven't found a Gas Station in the first ten minutes of your trip, you're probably not on a highway — this is one of the letters you can bank on early and move on.

Fun Fact

The gas station canopy — the overhead roof that shelters pumps from rain — wasn't standard until the 1910s; before that, drivers filled up in the open at curbside pumps outside general stores, often waiting in line behind horse-drawn wagons.

For Younger Players

Gas station signs use big, brightly colored logos that young kids can recognize even before they can read the letters, so this is usually an easy one to hand to a pre-reader.
