Questions about the daily word search

How do I play this word search?

Drag across the grid to select a word — forwards, backwards, up, down or on a diagonal. Each word you find crosses off the list under the grid. If you get stuck, the eye icon beside a word reveals where it is.

Is the daily puzzle the same for everyone?

Yes. Every visitor gets the identical grid for a given day, which is what makes solve times worth comparing. The grid is frozen when the puzzle is published and is never regenerated.

Can I play past daily puzzles?

Yes. Today's puzzle is free for everyone with no sign-up, and past days stay open in the daily archive. Logging in raises how many archive puzzles you can open per day.

How is my solve time measured?

The clock starts when you find your first word and stops on your last one, so reading the word list or changing the text size first costs you nothing.
