About The Singing Cowboy

Long before amplified stages and neon marquees, a lone rider with a guitar could hold a whole campfire crowd spellbound. The singing cowboy became an American archetype in the early twentieth century, part troubadour, part trailhand, carrying ballads across the prairie the way cattle drives carried longhorns to market. A three-chord melody, the scent of sagebrush on the wind, and a yodel echoing off a canyon wall were all the theater anyone needed under a wide western sky.

  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.
