Goal in certain rooms crossword clue

21 Across · WSJ Crossword, June 10, 2026 · 6 letters

Answer
ESCAPE
ESCAPE (6 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Goal in certain rooms” is ESCAPE. It appears as 21 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 10, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “A House Divided” by Peter A. Collins, and it fills 6 squares running left to right from row 4, column 5 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with E and ends with E, and contains 3 vowels and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
