About Paw Word Search

Paw Word Search is the classic find-the-words puzzle from Pet Love Arcade. Every puzzle has a fun theme like Snack Time, Space or Beach Trip, and a list of words hidden in the grid. It starts with a tiny 6 by 6 grid where words only run across and down, then grows bigger, adds slanted and backwards words, and adds a clock, up to a big final grid with a tight timer.

How to play Paw Word Search

Swipe from the first letter of a word to the last, or tap the first letter and then the last. Found words light up and get crossed off the list. On timed levels a wrong guess later in the game costs a few seconds, and running out of time costs one of 3 hearts. Clear a puzzle to win a heart back. Clear all 5 to win.

Tips: look for letters that stand out, like double letters or rare ones, then check around them. Search for the first two letters of a word side by side. On later levels words also run on slants and backwards, so check every direction. Long words are usually the easiest to spot, so find them first.
