# One Word Search

> Find a hidden five-letter word in a letter grid.

Daily Word game · [Play One Word Search](https://puzzlist.com/onewordsearch/) · <https://dledex.com/games/one-word-search>

A minimal word search built around a single five-letter target. The word can run horizontally, vertically or diagonally and may appear reversed, so the grid has to be scanned in every direction. Once the first word is spotted, a further word can be hunted in the same daily grid. Hosted on the Puzzlist site.
