About The Neighbors Next Door

On classic TV sitcoms, the neighbor next door was rarely a stranger for long. A knock on the doorframe, a head poking through the kitchen door, and suddenly the afternoon had turned into something worth watching. Whether trading rumors over the backyard fence or arriving uninvited with a casserole and an opinion, the neighbor was the heartbeat of the block, equal parts nuisance, comfort, and comic relief.

  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.
