About Woodland Creatures

Just past the tree line, the woods hold a world most of us only glimpse, a white tail flashing between oaks, a fox pausing at the edge of a meadow, a chipmunk stuffing its cheeks with acorns before the first frost. Opossums shuffle along low branches after dark, and rabbits freeze in the underbrush, perfectly still, certain you haven't seen them. These animals live on the seam between the wild and the familiar, which may be why they feel so much like neighbors.

    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.
