"Easy to play, like that you can design your own game."

Community Insight:
Thank you for creating this! Its excellent for learning other languages through vocabulary, as you can create your own word search board! We havent found another word search like this in the App Store. Thank you! Word customization, board size customization, board options… Its just great. Also, the ads, they arent in the way… Taking up the screen, flashing on top of the word search as we play the game… Thank you! We really appreciate your efforts to create this game.
Im having so much fun. Long words, short words, words within words, this game has them all. Lovin it.
We enjoy playing this game tremendously!! The words are occasionally long & challenging.
We really like the word search game. It is a good tool for hand/eye/memory exercises and it is fun. All the categories are great and the random game is always interesting. Thanks.
Two thumbs up on the additional categories that were included on the last update. Challenging for all ages and levels.
This is a perfect game to relax & play. No timers….just fun at your own pace.
Love this word search game and the fact that you can make the words larger too. Thanks.
This app is loaded with fun games in all sorts of different fun categories!! No matter which one you pick your sure to have an awesome and amazing time.
We were looking for a word search app and happen ended upon this one. So glad we did. The puzzles are just hard enough to make them a little bit of a challenge but, not so hard that you get frustrated. We worried that we would be swamped with ads but, the only thing that appears is just one little ad that appears at the top of the page. So far no annoying pop ups!! Thanks for this great FREE app.
Really like this game. Both fun and challenging.
A great game. It's relaxing, yet challenging.
Easy to play, like that you can design your game.
We love this game! We love that it has so many categories and that you can choose how easy or difficult it is. We play it every night before going to bed.
We are really enjoying this word search game. There is a lot to choose from, so knock yourself out and play a few rounds.
We love this game and the upgrades have made it so much more enjoyable…like being able to swipe the word frontwards or backwards. It helps with the speed.
Great for keeping your mind sharp.
Like the game. It is challenging.
We enjoy doing word searches our daughter not so much but even she can solve these puzzles. There are a lot to choose from so we would recommend this. We just got the app but so far no ads have popped up.
Good puzzle collection, but why are there banner ads if this is a paid app? Would be nice to play without them.
Enjoyable. Nice way to pass the time and keep the brain working.
It's a really fun game. We do it when ever we're board and we had a long day running all over creation . We have not done a lot of them but so far.
For those of us who like word search games, this is great. The puzzles cover lots of themes which we appreciate.
We like that there are so many categories. This is a fun offline word search. You can play it anywhere.
Our granddaughter who is 5, loves to play this with us. A good learning tool with lots of categories she can enjoy.
This is a well made word search with nice options. The only problem is we would like to be able to remove the ads. The ads are on the top so not like full page ones, thank goodness. A really good game.
If you like word searches, these are quite fun. It is nice to be able to change up colors and text if that helps you solve them faster. These are probably beginner level if you're looking for something more challenging you may have to play more levels or look to a different word search game.
This seems to be a pretty good game so far. We've tried several different word search apps before this one but we didn't like how they worked, so we deleted them. But this one's good.
It is a mindless game that allows you to sharpen your quick review skills.
Ok game. Simple for young children. Absolutely no challenge for adults. We can solve a puzzle in about one minute. All words seem to go in the same directions. We are bored after downloading the game two days ago.
This app is So-So and we might have reviewed higher but when asked if we wanted to review it would only accept a Yes response. Then redirected us to buy another app. We hate Flim Flam developers and wish Apple could keep them off the store.
Challenging. No technical issues whatsoever. Great game.
Very well designed and fun to play, we like how customizable it is, and that custom word lists can be used. We can create custom word searches from our grandson's spelling word lists. It would be nice to have some acknowledgment when the puzzle has been completed.
Love the game. No technical issues. Would like to see two minor enhancements. 1) some kind of acknowledgement when puzzle is completed and 2) timer to measure how quickly puzzle was solved.
Great word search. Lots of options & no crashes. Fun and challenging.
This is fun and challenging and a must for those who love to do word searches. There are many different categories, but if that isn't enough, you can easily make your own. It has never crashed and works great on our iPad.
Great new game! Keep creating.
App is easy to use and adjustable to our preferences and let's just say FUN.
Not too bad. A lot of different categories to choose from. Thanks.
