Final Clue Instructions
In order to find the final answer, you must walk a path through the completed puzzle:
- Start at the top blank square on the right edge and begin travelling left.
- Walking only on blank squares take the shortest route to the fourth topmost blank square on the same right edge.
- Where there are multiple shortest routes, prefer the one that postpones turning as long as possible.
- For each letter you encounter advance it forward in the alphabet by the number of adjacent filled squares.
- Reading the resulting letters in order will reveal a clue to your final answer.

PDF for a short walk-through on solving the example.
