Enter your words and generate a puzzle.

Player’s guide

Turn any word list into a playable, printable word search. Type your words — or let AI Suggest draft a themed list — pick a grid size, and generate. Looking for the timed daily puzzle instead? Play today’s challenge.

  1. 1

    Enter your words

    Type words into the list separated by commas, spaces, or new lines — up to 30. Every generate reshuffles the placements, so the same list makes a fresh grid each time.
  2. 2

    Let AI draft a list

    Short on ideas? Open AI Suggest, give it a topic and language, and it drafts ten words you can drop straight into the puzzle.
  3. 3

    Shape the grid

    Set the grid size, and choose whether words may overlap and whether diagonals are allowed. Turning diagonals off keeps the puzzle to across-and-down only — a gentler solve for younger players.

    Play or print

    Solve it on screen by dragging across each word, or use Export PDF for a clean printable with an answer key. Show Answer reveals every placement when you want to check your work.
Tip: Fewer, longer words on a small grid pack together tightly and make a satisfyingly dense puzzle; a larger grid with short words leaves more filler and reads easier.
