About The Swiss Alps

High in the Swiss Alps, the air turns crisp and thin, and the world below softens into a patchwork of dark pine and bright snow. Flower-filled meadows cling to impossibly steep slopes in summer, their cowbells ringing across the silence while glaciers inch down ancient valleys. At dusk, lamp-lit chalets glow amber against the snow, and the mountains feel as old and unhurried as the earth itself.

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.
