What Makes Word Search Puzzles + Stand Out
New from the makers of Word Search +, the hit word search game with more than 5 million downloads! Word Search Puzzles + has even more free puzzles for you to enjoy.
Play ten fresh categories every day for free! All our word lists were hand curated by me to make sure every category is interesting and fun.
Themes cover both pop culture and educational topics, and are sometimes just extremely silly jokes ;)
There are 310 total categories for hours and hours of word finding fun.
Relax with untimed mode, or give yourself the ultimate challenge by hiding the list of words. Can you find all the words without looking at the list??
• Daily puzzles: 10 fresh categories every day
• Interesting themes: 310 hand-curated categories
• Puzzles for all skill levels: five puzzle sizes
• Smart word selection for easier play on small screens
• Tracks your record times and best categories
• Relaxing or challenging, you can choose!
This Word game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
We've done word searches for years. We love EVERYTHING about this word search app!! The various topics and being able to choose the levels keep it always challenging – or just relaxing. A perfect word search for us.
Brilliant Educational Learning Application. Please Make More.
This Application is Amazing. Please make more educational applications. Thank You and God Bless You.
This app has always worked flawlessly for us.
Great App. Very fun and looks great. The timer works and you can turn it off if you don't want to use it. Lots of categories and words are great. We've tried several other word search puzzles but we really do like this one. Our search is finally over.
Love the app. We play every day. No time to finish one, no problem, you can pause and hold you place. Great fun.
We keep coming back to it again and again as a form relaxation…we have other word games on our phone but when we need to just simply unwind this is the one that does the trick.
Excellent game to chill out with. We do wish we could choose when to change categories as they always change before we're finished with the current batch. Someone already mentioned a hint button. That would be helpful. But overall no complaints and a lot of fun.
We usually find these word search games a little too easy – not so with this one! Good for whiling away the time during chemo.
Very addicting game, but the timer doesn't work. It will say it too 12 minutes to finish a game when it was only 4. Can't figure out how to reset timer. Need to come up with some new categories or refresh the ones you have. Same old things that are just switched around every day.
Love the different categories every day and the different levels you can play. Most favorable in our book.
Fun categories! Like the new ones every day.
We love these puzzles. Great way to relax after a stressful day. FUN FUN FUN. Playing right now And every day.
We enjoy searching for words. Your app helps us stay alert. Thank you.
Enjoy playing these games! Also, love the different categories they give you.
We are enjoying this app, complete with timer and 10 free categories each day.
We love word and picture puzzles and this word search really lines up with those types of games. This one is especially enjoyable since it allows for more complex words and searches. Great way to unwind, fill in down times and just to have puzzle fun.
Addictive. And you can even learn new words.
Love the different categories. Enjoy playing on our commute to and from work.
Love that the categories change and have so many options which are free.
Love the new categories every day. A go-to game for us.
We like this game. We usually can finish all the ten puzzles in one night. We look forward to a new set every day.
Varying puzzles and being timed adds competition.
This is a fun and brain exercise game.
It is unusual to have fresh content everyday. Great idea.
Dont get new games everyday. Have had the same for almost a week.
Since we retired 3 years ago, we discovered this app and we use it to keep our brain active! The only downside is that sometimes we finish ALL the puzzles at one sitting and would like more.
We play almost every day & enjoy this word find game.
We love the puzzles but we do not like the font size on level 5–cause we can not see the letters even with our glasses. We enjoy the puzzles , however the font size is too small levels 4 – 5 . Even with glasses . Frances.
Enjoyable and a good way to spend time. We have noticed that the categories are repeating it would be nice to have more categories.
These are short little puzzles that keep you entertained and on your toes.
We truly enjoy the word searches and the categories. The lists are challenging and the levels are fun. The only downside is that sometimes it is hard to get the words lined up when using your finger. Still we do enjoy the word searches.
Good game but some puzzles contain misspelled words.
This is a very relaxing game. We find ourselves playing it everyday. We only wish the words didnt get so tiny and pale and there were different categories.
Ive been on Level 5 for 4 days and the word list has not changed. The app clearly states a new list of words every day. Not happening. Ive enjoyed the game the first time but Im considering deleting it and moving on to a more challenging app that does what it says.
Really enjoy but developers CLAIM new puzzles daily; NOT TRUE. Same puzzles keep appearing. Was directed to another Word search but it charges! Fun but site needs fixing to have more honesty.
It says it's a daily puzzle, but we could be playing the same category for up to three days, sometimes. We're definitely playing the same game at least every other day; so it's nothing to look forward to, compared to the other daily puzzles that actually renew on a daily bases. We know devs have a life, too; but if it SAYS "daily", it should BE daily, or just don't promise it. We mean, sheesh, how difficult and time consuming could a few puzzles be to create, what with the modern technology we have at our fingertips? If you don't want to do it, pay us and we'll do it. Otherwise don't be making promises you can't keep. You aren't running for office, here.
We enjoy playing this game but find an increased frustration when the game does not refresh or renew when it says it will. We think it should update in real time. Once you have mastered the words this game needs to refresh so the player can keep playing. The app continues to frustrate which detours us from using it as we had planned. Please fix the app so it updates as it promises.
This is a fun game and the set of categories is always interesting. However, the categories are supposed to change daily but they don't always. Some improvements: ability to choose and change categories; stretch the screen (the letters on level 5 are really tiny); and the choice to get a hint of where a word is located.
The best word search app out there.
