About Chicken & Dumplings

Chicken and dumplings is one of those suppers that seem to belong to every region at once, found simmering on stovetops from Appalachia to the Gulf Coast, each cook swearing by a slightly different hand for the dough. Some families roll their dumplings thin and flat; others drop them by the spoonful into the bubbling pot, where they puff up soft and pillowy in the steam. Either way, the moment the ladle hits the bowl, something in the room settles, a warmth that has little to do with temperature alone.

How to play

  1. 1
    Find a word.Tap its first letter, then tap along to its last — the trail fills in and finishes itself when it spells a word. Or press the first letter and drag.
  2. 2
    Words run in straight lines.Across and down, and on the harder difficulties diagonally and backwards.
  3. 3
    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft colour on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.Relaxed, Classic or Challenging set those directions and how much the word list helps — never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
