Bigger on the inside
Doctor Who has travelled through time for sixty years, and this puzzle gathers the icons. You'll be finding the DOCTOR and their TIME LORD home of GALLIFREY, the blue POLICE BOX known as the TARDIS, and the SONIC screwdriver that gets them out of trouble.
Because every new puzzle reshuffles the universe, no two Doctor Who word searches are the same. One round a backwards DALEK glides into a corner; the next a diagonal CYBERMAN clanks across the middle.
Companions and classic foes
The Doctor never travels alone, and the COMPANIONS are here — ROSE, DONNA, CLARA, AMY and YAZ — alongside old enemies the MASTER, the SONTARAN and the planet SKARO. We've even tucked in WHOVIAN and the word REGENERATE for the lifelong fans.
Spanning every GALAXY and corner of the VORTEX, this puzzle celebrates the longest-running sci-fi show on television.
How to play
Drag across a word, or click its first and last letter — both work. Each word you spot locks in with its own colour and ticks off the list, so you always know what's left to find.
