Hidden Words

Hidden Words is a free, relaxing word-search puzzle. Hidden words sit inside a grid of letters — just drag your finger across a row, column or diagonal to find each word from the list. Clear every word to finish the level, then move on to bigger, trickier grids.
With four themed packs (Animals, Food, Countries and Movies), hundreds of levels, a fresh Daily Puzzle, Relaxed and Timed modes, a satisfying swipe-to-select highlight and online leaderboards, Hidden Words is perfect for a quick brain break or a long, cosy session. Easy to learn, endlessly replayable.

• Four themed word packs — Animals, Food, Countries and Movies — with hundreds of levels.

How to Play
• Drag your finger across the letters to trace a word — rows, columns and diagonals all count.
