Word Search Puzzles by Razzle Puzzles review

The Razzle Puzzles word search app is a classic, book-style word search for phones and tablets. The developer says the game has thousands of free puzzles, with words hidden horizontally, vertically, diagonally or backwards, and that its puzzles use standard English words of more substance than most word search games. That makes it a quiet vocabulary builder: tap any word in the list to look up its definition. For players who want more of a test, hard and expert modes hide the word list. Unfinished games are saved so you can come back later, a stats tracker records best and average times, and the app plays online or offline. It has a 4.7 average from 1.8K ratings and lists no in-app purchases. Razzle Puzzles does not publish a large-print option, so a tablet is the better screen for seniors. We compared documented features and published prices.
