Word Posy: Calm Word Search

A calm word search with no ads, ever. Find hidden words in puzzles built around sixty themes: garden flowers, birds, baking, classic films, travel, and many more. The app opens straight on your next puzzle, and there is always another one. LETTERS YOU CAN READ Other games make a puzzle harder by making the letters smaller. This one never does. You choose the grid, from 6 by 6 with the largest letters to 12 by 12 for a long search. Difficulty comes from the way the words hide: across and down at Easy, diagonal and backwards at Medium, crossing each other with decoys at Hard and Expert. A NEW PUZZLE EVERY DAY Today's puzzle is the same for everyone who plays with the same settings. The calendar keeps the past days open, so a missed day waits for you. MAKE ONE FOR FAMILY Type the words, add a title and a short note, and send the puzzle in a message. It opens in Word Posy on their phone, with the same grid you made. PLAY TOGETHER Two players on one phone or iPad take turns. Each found word shows who found it, and the end of the puzzle shows the tally. A LITTLE SURPRISE AT THE END In Easy and Medium puzzles, the letters left over when you finish can spell a short fact about the theme. In Hard and Expert, a mystery word hides in the grid. Spot a real word that is not on the list? It counts as a bonus word. MAKE IT YOUR OWN Choose Custom and set the rules yourself: how many words to find, diagonal or backwards words, and whether the list shows whole words, first letters only, or clues. Mix two or three themes into one puzzle. SKIP ONE, COME BACK LATER Stuck on a puzzle? Skip it. Every level waits for you in the level picker, so you can come back to it whenever you like. Every five levels bring a new ink for your pen.
