Understand the basics of Word Search

Try Word Search at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Find every listed word in a 10×10 grid. Use the example below to understand a decision. Choose a comfortable screen position before beginning. Look at what changes after your first action.

Each board contains eight target words from the included English word list.

Give this approach a try

When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Use the example to check your reasoning.

The purpose of your moves

Find every listed word in a 10×10 grid. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.

Follow these playing steps

  1. Select the first and last letter of a straight word.
  2. Words can run horizontally, vertically or diagonally, in either direction.
  3. Find all eight targets.
  4. New puzzle shuffles again.

Making selections and moves

Tap or click endpoints. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Check any mode label before starting.

Try this example

Selecting the endpoints in reverse order also finds the same word. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Keep the controls nearby.

Avoid this misunderstanding

Words cannot turn corners. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
