About Word Search
Word Search is the cosy classic: scan a grid of letters for the words on your list, hidden horizontally, vertically and diagonally — forwards or backwards. Swipe across each word you spot to lock it in, against pretty backgrounds that change as you play.
A hosted HTML5 game that loads in your browser when you press play.
How to play
- Read the word list beside the grid.
- Find a word hidden in a straight line in any direction.
- Swipe from the first letter to the last to select it.
- Find every word to complete the puzzle.
Tips & strategy
- Scan for unusual starting letters first — they're quicker to find.
- Sweep one direction at a time: across, then down, then diagonals.
- Long words hide in fewer places — find them first.
