About Cape Cod

The Cape hooks out into the Atlantic like a flexed arm, its outer shore carved by glaciers into steep dune bluffs that glow amber at dusk. Cranberry bogs flush crimson every autumn, and weathered saltbox cottages sit behind privet hedges that smell of the sea. From Chatham's fish pier to the Pilgrim Monument rising above Provincetown, the whole narrow peninsula feels suspended between land and open ocean.

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.
