- Windows Word Search Rampage - Program Overview
-
- The Multi-Media ready Windows Word Search Rampage comes complete with over
- 100 puzzles that can be played right on the computer or can be printed out
- for activities, parties, friends or family. Each puzzle has its own name
- and falls under one of several categories. Playing a puzzle is easy and
- fun. Simply double click on the puzzle of your choice from a list box and
- the puzzle appears along with a list of words to be found in the puzzle.
- Once a word is spotted, click on the first letter of the word and hold the
- mouse button down. As you drag the mouse a line appears showing your
- movement. Drag the mouse to the ending letter of the word and release the
- mouse button. Behold, the word in the puzzle is highlighted, one of
- several congratulatory audio remarks will be heard, and the word in the
- list will be marked as found. Playing at work? No problem. You may
- optionally turn the sound off. Sure that the word is not in the puzzle?
- Well, you can activate the hint mode. Other options include the ability
- to time yourself as you play the puzzle, use upper or lower case letters,
- place a grid around the puzzle for better clarity and to leave used letters
- in the puzzle highlighted. You may create, edit and delete your own
- puzzles. Simply enter a topic, title, list of words and dimensions and
- push a button. Presto, the puzzle is created and you now have the option
- of saving it to disk where it will appear with the other puzzles in the
- list box. You may also vary the complexity level of the created puzzle.
- An option to to create puzzles with no diagonal words, less diagonals,
- average diagonals and more diagonals is also available. Printing options
- include upper or lower case letters, optional grid and full page printing
- or half page printing (left side, top page, 2 side by side, 2 up and down).
