NPR Sunday Puzzle (Oct 11, 2026): Let's Get Moving

NPR Sunday Puzzle (Oct 11, 2026): Let's Get Moving
Q: Name a company that's known for transportation. Move the first two letters to the end. Reverse everything. Insert the name of an international tourist destination. And you'll get the name of a game that involves transportation. What things are these?
Why am I stuck thinking of Lyft and their pink branding?

  1. Take the name of the game. Remove three letters. Rearrange. You get a weapon.

  2. The game that involves transportation has four state postal abbreviations in a row.

  3. Got the answer. Congrats to the creator but you have to admit this is one of the most convoluted sets of puzzle instructions you’ve ever seen. No clue here. And what kind of “ask” is, “What things are these?”

  4. I thought this was harder than last week's puzzle but there were only 300 correct submissions to that one so what do I know?

  6. I agree with Chuck re the convoluted instructions. But fun puzzle nevertheless.

    If you take the first two and last two letters of the game and reverse them, you get another form of transportation (that some may find familiar).

  7. I'm reminded of one of Blaine's holiday videos, I think.

For NPR puzzle posts, don't post the answer or any hints that could lead to the answer before the deadline (usually Thursday at 3pm ET). If you know the answer, submit it to NPR, but don't give it away here.

You may provide indirect hints to the answer to show you know it, but make sure they don't assist with solving. You can openly discuss your hints and the answer after the deadline. Thank you.
