Around the Board: a free large-print word search

Around the board word search, free and large-print. Land on every square: tokens, tracks, spinners, and the winding path from start to finish.

About Around the Board

Before the first roll, there is a moment of pure possibility, the board laid flat on the table, every square empty, every path still open. Tokens settle onto the starting space, the dice warm in someone's hand, and the whole family leans in. From the tight corners to the long straightaways, each game is its own small journey around a familiar world.

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.
