Forwardcharm Word Search is a word puzzle game: find the hidden words in a grid of letters - a new themed puzzle every level.

How do I play?
Each level has a theme, like Garden Flowers or Capital Cities, and a list of words to find in the grid of letters. Words can run across, down or diagonally, forwards or backwards. Words made of more than one word, like New York, appear in the grid without the space.
How do I select a word?
Either tap the first letter and then tap the last letter, or put your finger on the first letter and slide it to the last one. You can start from either end of the word. When you find a word, it is highlighted in the grid and crossed off the list.
What if I select the wrong letters?
Nothing bad happens. You'll hear a soft "boop" and the selection clears, so you can try again.
I'm stuck. Can I skip a level?
Yes. Tap the menu button (the three lines at the top right) and choose Skip Level. The words you missed are shown on the grid, then tap OK to go on to the next level.
Can I make the letters easier to read?
Everything uses a typeface designed for easy reading. In Settings you can switch between capitals and lower case, turn on dark mode, and choose where the grid sits (above or below the word list when upright, or left or right when sideways). The game works in both upright and sideways positions.
Can I go back to an earlier level?
Yes. Choose Pick Level on the title screen and type in the number of any level you've already reached.
Is there a limit to how many levels there are?
No — every level is generated on the fly from its level number, so there's always another one, and everyone gets the same puzzle for a given level number.
Can I lose?
No. There are no time limits and no way to fail.
Does the app collect any of my data?
No. See the privacy policy for details.
