Word Search.

A small game built on careful logic.

What this
project explores.

An original C++ puzzle refined into an interactive browser game with seeded puzzles, personal records and a visible search algorithm.

A word-search puzzle needs reliable input handling, direction-aware matching and persistent state without a graphical framework.

Built to be
explored.

Browser edition with original boards, generated and daily puzzles, automatic resume and interactive algorithm exploration.

01

15×15 character grid and three difficulty modes

02

Multi-directional case-insensitive word matching

03

Original boards, seeded daily puzzles, automatic browser resume and personal records

How it's
structured.

Built a 15×15 word grid with horizontal, vertical and diagonal search options that vary by difficulty, plus local high-score persistence.

01Original C++ / board files
02Seeded puzzle engine
03Pointer and keyboard selection
04Validated browser persistence
05Interactive algorithm trace

This is a simplified explanation of the work. Planned functionality is distinguished from implemented code.
