About the Daily Word Search

A free themed word search every day. Each grid hides a list of words on a single theme, running across, down, diagonally and sometimes backwards. The themes lean Australian: places, food, wildlife, sport and the odd bit of slang, so the words feel familiar even when they are well hidden.

Word search is a gentle brain workout that suits a quiet moment with a coffee. Play in your browser on any device, no download required. Finish the grid to record your time and compare it with other Cuppa players.

How to play Word Search

  1. Read the theme and the word list beside the grid.
  2. Drag from the first letter to the last letter of a word to select it. Words can run in any direction.
  3. Found words are crossed off the list. Keep going until every word is circled.
  4. Stuck on the last one? Show Answer highlights it, at the cost of your clean solve.

A new puzzle is published every morning, Sydney time, and signed-in members keep their streaks and scores across devices.
