Each board contains eight target words from the included English word list.
Practice with a purpose
Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Use the example to check your reasoning.
Your goal
Find every listed word in a 10×10 grid. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
A walkthrough of the rules
- Select the first and last letter of a straight word.
- Words can run horizontally, vertically or diagonally, in either direction.
- Find all eight targets.
- New puzzle shuffles again.
The controls to know
Tap or click endpoints. Use the control method described here for this activity. Check any mode label before starting.
An example to follow
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 game’s format in mind.
A useful caution
Words cannot turn corners. Compare the situation with the worked example. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
