The Brain Maze

How many words can you make using the word
‘brain’?

The Brain MAZE!

 Crack the code #1!
Read the clues carefully to try and crack the code! Write the secret message underneath the clues!

Here’s an example to get you started! If we are looking at the FIRST word.
S+TIE, but T needs to be replaced with a C (t = c), This means we have SCI. We need to ADD ‘DANCE’ but we
are REMOVING the ‘DA’ as there was a minus sign so we only end up adding ‘NCE’, so ‘SCI+NCE’ = SCIENCE.

Secret Message:
 Crack the code #2!
