Word Search
Find every word from the list hidden in the grid of letters. Words run across, down and diagonally, and the harder boards hide them backwards too. It is one of the most relaxed puzzles in the app — and one of the six you can write yourself and send to someone.
How it works
- Find every word shown above the letter grid.
- Drag from the first letter to the last in one straight line.
- Words can run across, down, or diagonally.
- Harder boards can hide words backwards as well.
The same rules are shown inside the app, on the puzzle’s overview screen — one tap opens the difficulty choice and how to play together, so you never have to go looking for them.

Good if you want…
- Something to do with your hands more than your head
- A word puzzle with no time pressure
- Making your own and sending it to someone
Word Search in Winters Puzzles
Word Search is one of 32 puzzles in Winters Puzzles, so it sits alongside Word Guess, Word Ladder, Hangman and everything else in the app rather than being a download of its own. It can turn up in Today’s Mix, and it counts towards your stats and streak like any other puzzle.
Word Search is also one of the six puzzles you can write yourself. Put in your own words or questions, try it, then send a link so someone else can play exactly what you made — see create and share.
