The wizarding world in one grid
The world of Harry Potter is packed with magic, and this puzzle gathers the best of it. You'll be hunting for the heroes — HERMIONE, HAGRID and DUMBLEDORE — the houses from GRYFFINDOR to SLYTHERIN, and the magic itself, from a flying BROOMSTICK to a tricky POTION.
Because every new puzzle re-casts the spell, no two Harry Potter word searches are the same. One round you're chasing the GOLDEN GOBLET through the diagonals; the next a backwards HORCRUX is hiding in the corner.
Magic for every kind of fan
Whether you've read every book or just love the films, spotting a favourite name in the grid is pure fun — and a brilliant way for younger fans to practise those tricky spellings (QUIDDITCH, anyone?).
With no timer, it's a relaxed visit to Hogwarts. Finding PATRONUS tucked diagonally into a corner is a small, magical win.
How to play
Drag across a word, or click its first and last letter — both work. Each word you find locks in with its own colour and ticks off the list, so you always know what's still hidden.
Want a bigger challenge? Switch to Medium or Hard for a larger grid with diagonal and reverse words. Stuck on one? Tap Hint for a nudge, or Solve to reveal the whole spellbook at once.
