There are a lot of types of puzzle games. As I read from thisgengaming.com, there are also many ways to make your puzzle games more challenging. One most common and challenging puzzle game is Word Search Puzzle. You can find the words in the standard scan layout (from left to right). But most of the time, they are upside down (from right to left), they can be vertical (from top to bottom or from bottom to top), and be in diagonals.
Each of the directions can reveal the term backward, or in the order you read it, thus changing your orientation. For example, a vertical expression found from top to bottom could be called “ordinary”. In contrast, from bottom to top, it could be called “upside down”. One annoying suggestion, used in more complicated puzzles, is to put another picture of the first three or four letters of a word placed somewhere next to the actual word, that makes you think you have found it, only to find that you have been deceived instead. Here are some strategies to help you solve word search puzzles.
Ignore the Word List
To start the puzzle, for now, I’ll leave the list of expressions aside and look for the single sentences I’ll find, focusing on the biggest words because they are usually the ones on the list. Small words with only four or four letters are less common and are sometimes unintended by-products of these confusing letters inserted into the puzzle.
First, I hunt one way, then another, horizontally and vertically, and move around the puzzle. As for me, personally, I don’t try diagonals, although you could try them too. Just as I have astigmatism, diagonals tend to “move” with me, making it difficult to adhere to a straight line.
Search for Multiple Words at a Time
Start looking for more than one term at a time. This is very advantageous if you play with a digital device or network, and the timer is included. Timers may or may not be important to you. It depends on the type.
Turn the Puzzle Upside-Down
This only works with the pencil and paper puzzle type, but strangely enough, now and then, when you turn over the entire puzzle book, a word may appear that you have never seen before or find yourself in a place that you have never seen before. Sometimes it is a difficult task unless you are satisfied with the ability to see things upside down.
Use the Words in a Goofy Phrase
Create phrases or crazy fucking expressions. The crazier it is, the bigger it is, because it can help you remember the words you are looking for. Of course, this is always true if you are looking for at least one word at a time. Two or three more words to create the paragraph; your thoughts will remember that they are not from the phrases list.
Scan for Impossible Words
At least it seems there is. Usually, you leave them anyway and move on, especially in a time game. However, here are several clues. One of the best, though more expensive, is simply sliding your finger around each line in turn, stopping at each event of the first letter of the elusive word.
This usually works. However, there are cases (though rare) where puzzle creators have made a mistake by leaving the actual puzzle along with a phrase from the album. It is annoying, to say the least, and ultimately irritating because you can’t finish the puzzle (in an electronic game or online) in a novel that does not play an important role. Strangely enough, sometimes it seems that the shortest words are the most difficult to find: They hide well.
