Can anyone give me any help on level 225. I've been on it patiently for months now.

I just need any hints to get through level 225. I've been trying for months and get down to 2 left but can't see me ever completing it !!

The priority is to get rid of the blockers. You can spread the gold in the last moves easily if you have the room to get longer words so if it's a choice between spreading and hitting the blockers always go for the latter. You need line blasters, of course, so try every way you can think of to extend words to get them. I find this easiest if starting with the Liberty companion but rotate around to see what suits you best. Don't be afraid to ditch a board if it's looking like it's going nowhere. It's a lot less frustrating than playing a dead attempt out to the end.

many thanks Baz I have been more intent on trying to spread and being left with a couple of blockers, so getting a bit nearer already, cheers.

Thanks Baz for another great answer!
