Word Search — 56 Categories, 2,240 Levels

Word Search is a free browser word-finding puzzle: drag across the grid to find every hidden word, working through 56 themed categories with 40 levels apiece. Built in plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript, it loads instantly and needs nothing installed.

How It Works

Drag from a word's first letter to its last — across, down, backwards or diagonally — to find it, and clear the board to move on. Stuck? Three hints are free per level, and extra ones cost coins you earn by clearing levels. Stars reward speed, accuracy and playing hint-free, and each category earns a bronze, silver or gold medal as you clear it.
