Seabiscuit: a free online word search

Seabiscuit word search, free and printable, built around a knobby little colt who won over Depression-era crowds at Pimlico in 1938.

About Seabiscuit

Seabiscuit was a short, plain-looking bay who got off to a poor start and was written off by most people who saw him. Then Charles Howard bought him, Tom Smith trained him, and Red Pollard rode him, and by the late 1930s people with very little money were crowding around radios to hear him run. On November 1, 1938, at Pimlico in Baltimore, he beat the favorite War Admiral by four lengths, and an underdog became a national hero.

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.
