About Castles of Europe

Europe is crowded with castles, and no two feel alike. Some sit right on the water, others perch on a rock above a river, and the one in Segovia is said to have lent its profile to a certain animated princess's home. Most were built to keep someone out, and most now let anyone in for the price of a ticket.

How to play

    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.
