About Scour
Scour is a free daily word search from Mind Loft. Every day brings one theme, such as cities, countries, food, animals, jobs or first names, and a big fifteen by fifteen grid with fourteen to eighteen words from it hidden inside.
Drag across a word, or tap its first letter and then its last. Every word is hidden exactly once, a wrong line costs nothing, and the clock decides the daily leaderboard. The words run across and down on Monday and pick up diagonals, backward words and decoys through the week.
The Sunday Edition is the big one: an eighteen by eighteen grid with twenty-six words running in all eight directions. No app, no signup, play free in your browser. Want the same theme scrambled instead? Try Scram.
