Build-a-robot, in one grid
Robots fascinate just about everyone, and this puzzle gathers the parts and ideas that make them tick. You'll be finding the robots themselves — ROBOT, ANDROID and CYBORG — the parts inside, from the MOTOR and SERVO to the CIRCUIT and SENSOR, and the science that brings them to life, from the ACTUATOR to a clever MECHANISM.
Because every new puzzle reshuffles the grid, no two robots word searches are the same. One round a backwards HUMANOID hides in a corner; the next a diagonal AUTOMATON marches across the middle.
A brilliant fit for STEM topics
Robotics is one of the most exciting parts of STEM, blending engineering, coding and design. This puzzle pairs perfectly with a robotics club, a 'how machines work' topic, or a design-and-technology project.
Plenty of words are short for Easy mode, while longer ones like AUTOMATON and MECHANISM give older engineers a satisfying challenge.
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 highlight and ticks off the list, so you always know what's left to find.
