Word Search 10K

About

Word Search 10K crams 10 thousand hidden words into a grid of 90 thousand letters. Players scan rows and columns for answers ranging from common nouns to obscure terms. The 3DS touch screen lets you circle letters directly. Each puzzle resets if you want to replay for better scores. No time limits but the sheer scale makes this a slow burn. Lightwood Games built this as their most ambitious word hunt yet. Metacritic averages 68 percent from critics. Steam users give it 4.3 out of 5 stars. Most finish in 15 to 20 hours. The 2017 release date means the puzzles feel a bit dated but the core mechanics remain solid. Great for long commutes or quiet afternoons.
