Question 1

How do I make a word search puzzle?

Accepted Answer

Type your word list in the input area (one word per line, 4-12 letters works best), pick a grid size and difficulty, then click Generate. The tool instantly places each word in the grid horizontally, vertically or diagonally, and fills the remaining cells with random letters. Use the Print button for a paper copy.

Question 2

Can I customize the difficulty?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Choose Easy for horizontal/vertical only, Medium to add diagonal, or Hard to include reverse (right-to-left / bottom-to-top) words too. You can also pick the grid size from 8x8 to 18x18.

Question 3

Does it include a solution sheet?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Click Toggle Solution to highlight all the words in the grid so teachers, parents or the player can verify answers. The list of placed words is shown below the puzzle for quick reference.

Question 4

Is the puzzle printable?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Click the Print button to open a printer-friendly view with the grid and word list — no ads, no clutter. Works in all modern browsers.
