Tracewords is a daily word-search puzzle with a vintage puzzle-book feel. Each puzzle hides 10 to 12 common English words inside an 8x8 letter grid, placed in any of the eight directions — horizontal, vertical, or diagonal. Click and drag from the first letter of a word to its last. A gray trace line follows your cursor. Release on the final letter — if your trace matches a hidden word the line locks gold and the word strikes through in the found-words list.
Daily mode generates the same grid for every player worldwide each calendar day. Your first completion submits your time to the leaderboard. Classic mode gives you an endless stream of fresh random grids at any time, and every solved puzzle submits.
