Word Search
Hidden words are placed inside a letter grid for players to find. This is useful for highlighting product names, values, keywords, locations or themed messages in a light and interactive way.
How the Word Search works
Start the game
Users tap the Start button to begin. The letter grid and the list of words to find appear on screen.
Find the hidden words
Users search the grid and select each hidden word by dragging across the letters. Every word found is marked off the list.
Receive the result
When all words are found or the timer ends, the result is calculated from the words found and the time taken, then shown on screen.
Continue the journey
Users can join a leaderboard, unlock a reward, submit their details or play again, depending on the campaign setup.
