About Word Search

Word Search is a classic word puzzle with a timer. Each level hides a set of words from one theme in a grid of letters: animals, fruit, African countries, sports, space and food. Find each word and drag your finger from its first letter to its last to mark it. Words can run across, down or diagonally, and from the third level they can also run backwards. Every word you find scores points based on its length, and finding all of them before the timer runs out earns a bonus for the time left and takes you to the next theme with more words. Found words are crossed off the list and highlighted in the grid in different colours. If time runs out the game ends, but you can resume with thirty more seconds. Word Search is a calm puzzle that is great for learning new words. It is free, works with touch on phones and the mouse on computers, and saves your best score on your device.
