Pinpoint #470 Walkthrough & Analysis
Puzzle Overview
Todayâs Pinpoint starts with a word that feels deceptively simple: Table. Immediately, my brain jumps to categories. My next thought was that we might be dealing with locations after seeing Sea, a vast natural expanse that fits right into that theory. But then the clues take a sharp turn into the domestic and the culinary with Bath and Celery, making the âplacesâ idea feel less likely. The final clue, Epsom, feels like a wild card that refuses to play along. Itâs a clear sign that the connection isnât about what these things are, but about a specific, perhaps less obvious, qualifier they all share.
