About Venice

Venice rises from a shallow lagoon in the Adriatic, its streets replaced by ribbons of green-gray water and its rooftops stitched together by hundreds of arching bridges. For centuries, merchant ships laden with silk and spice glided beneath the Rialto while the Doge's palace glowed gold at the water's edge. Even today the city moves to the rhythm of oar strokes and tides, its stones warm in the afternoon light, its piazzas filling with the echo of footsteps and the distant peal of bells.

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.
