Grand Opera: a free online word search

Opera word search, free and printable with no sign-up. Verdi, Puccini and a doomed lover or two, all waiting on the final curtain.

About Grand Opera

La Scala in Milan opened in 1778, and the lights still go down there much as they do at the Metropolitan Opera in New York, which has stood since 1883 in one form or another. The stories are enormous and often fatal, but people keep coming back for the voices, one human throat filling a room with no microphone at all. Somebody in every family has a favorite aria they'll hum while doing dishes.

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 color on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.The level you pick sets 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.
