Word Search Battle
Found it!race to circle every word

This long-distance date is perfect for couples who love classic games and a bit of friendly competition. It brings back that nostalgic feeling of sitting down with a puzzle book, circling words, and racing to find them before anyone else. This turns a classic paper game into a multiplayer word search experience you can enjoy with your long-distance partner. You can play side by side and compete to see who finds the words first.

Make it a night to remember

  • Turn a word search battle into a playful strip game, similar to strip poker. The loser of each round removes an item of clothing.
  • The loser has to answer a funny question, do a dare, or plan the next date.
  • Do one word search every day and keep track of who wins each round. At the end of the week, see who the overall winner is.
