FAQ
How does the Christmas word search advent calendar work?
There are 24 puzzles, one for each day from December 1 to December 24. Each door unlocks on its date in your local time zone, and opened days stay playable for the rest of the season.
Can I play before December?
Yes. Before December 1 there is a free preview puzzle so you can try the game. The first calendar door opens on December 1.
Is it the same puzzle for everyone?
Yes. Each day's grid is generated from the date, so everyone playing on the same day gets the same word search and can compare times.
Does it work on phones and tablets?
Yes. It is designed for portrait phone screens: drag across the letters with one finger. It also works with a mouse or keyboard on a computer.

About Snowglobe Words
Snowglobe Words is a free Christmas word search online, built as an advent calendar. From December 1 to December 24 a new door opens every day, and behind each door is a fresh holiday word search: snow days, gingerbread baking, carol singers, the night before Christmas and more. Before December you can play a free preview puzzle, so you can try it right now.
Each puzzle hides 8 to 10 Christmas words in a letter grid. Drag your finger or mouse from the first letter to the last letter of a word to find it. Words run across, down and diagonally, and on later days they can also run backwards. Keyboard players can use the arrow keys and Enter.
Everyone gets the same puzzle on the same day, so you can compare times with friends and family and share your result. Finished days and best times stay saved on your device, and opened doors stay playable for the rest of the season. There is nothing to print and nothing to download: it is a calm, cozy daily word search for every age, ready on your phone whenever you have five minutes.
