The word game with a riddle inside
Trace words in a grid of letters. Every word you find fills a gap in a definition. Read it, and guess the title it describes: a famous person, a film, an animal, an idiom…
How to play
- Link neighbouring letters in the grid to make words.
- The words of the definition appear one by one; long words give you letters of the title.
- Guess the title in as few moves as you can: the fewer you play, the more you score.
