How to play
- Every word in the list is hidden in the grid, in a straight line.
- Drag across a word from its first letter to its last. On a phone you can also tap the first letter, then the last.
- Found words stay highlighted and are crossed off the list. Find them all to finish.
- Easy puzzles only run left to right and top to bottom. Medium adds diagonals. Hard runs in all eight directions, backwards too.
