   Hint: A formal investigation can be run by both.

   Reveal round 1 answer

   inquiry

   An inquiry is the formal investigation: detectives conduct inquiries, and panels are convened to run them. Both clues are who carries an inquiry out.

2. Round 2 · bone + brain

   Hint: The hard casing that protects one clue and houses the other.

   Reveal round 2 answer

   skull

   The skull is the bony case: bones form it, and the brain sits inside it. One clue is its material, the other its tenant.

3. Round 3 · war + poetry

   Hint: A grand literary form, often about heroes in battle.

   Reveal round 3 answer

   epic

   An epic is the grand narrative: war epics like the Iliad are foundational poetry, and the word names both the poem and the ambition. Both clues feed the same heroic register.

4. Round 4 · coach + collection + assembly

   Hint: A sports word for who starts, reused by museums and factories.

   Reveal round 4 answer

   lineup

   A lineup is the ordered arrangement: coaches set the lineup, museums present a collection's lineup, and assembly means putting parts in order like a lineup. Every clue is an ordering of people or things.

5. Round 5 · cent

   Hint: The everyday name for the smallest coin.

   Reveal round 5 answer

   penny

   A penny is the one-cent coin: cents price it, and pennies accumulate into cents. The single clue asks for the coin's familiar name.
