Word search
A grid of letters hides six to eight words from the same topic, all titles of Wikipedia articles: cities, animals, artists or inventions, depending on the day. The word list is shown next to the grid. Each word can run horizontally, vertically or diagonally, forwards or backwards, and two words may share a letter. To select one, tap its first letter and then its last. Accents do not count: a word is written with plain letters in the grid. You are allowed twelve missed selections. A tip: look first for rare letters such as K, W or Z, then scan around them in all eight directions. Long words are often easier to spot than short ones, so start with them and the grid clears up as you go. The grid changes every day at midnight (UTC) and is the same for everyone. Two ways to play Word search: the daily challenge, the same puzzle for everyone, renewed every day at midnight (UTC), one game per day, with a day streak and coins to win; and free play, unlimited, where a new puzzle is drawn for every game, with no reward, so you can practise as much as you like. In free play, the solution is always shown at the end.
