At a glance

Word Search #20 in brief

  • A 12x12 grid — 144 letters — with ten words buried in it.
  • The grid, row by row: TFEUJBULFEAU / OOYCOFMETOEB / ASCTELGAETAP / GBDGYMDTLCBL / NGLINPULLQPP / IWVGOSLINGIF / LNALFUCWTHNP / KLEFJDKDKCEI / CATFGUBCHJTM / UVAEPLIIHPTP / DTJATGCOLAIR / VOELXKDTYAKY.
  • They run from 4 to 8 letters, and 7 of the ten are written in reverse, so scanning left-to-right alone will not finish this one.
