Windows Word Search Mania - Program Overview
The Multi-Media ready Windows Word Search Mania comes complete with over
75 puzzles that can be played right on the computer or can be printed out
for activities, parties, friends or family. Each puzzle has its own name
and falls under one of several categories. Playing a puzzle is easy and
fun. Simply double click on the puzzle of your choice from a list box and
the puzzle appears along with a list of words to be found in the puzzle.
Once a word is spotted, click on the first letter of the word and hold the
mouse button down. As you drag the mouse a line appears showing your
movement. Drag the mouse to the ending letter of the word and release the
mouse button. Behold, the word in the puzzle is highlighted, one of several
congratulatory audio remarks will be heard, and the word in the list will be
marked as found. Playing at work? No problem. You may optionally turn the
sound off. Sure that the word is not in the puzzle? Well, you can activate
the hint mode. Other options include the ability to time yourself as you
play the puzzle and to leave used letters in the puzzle highlighted.
PLUS VERSION
Identical to the above, but contains over 300 puzzles ready to be played!
GOLD VERSION
Contains all the features of the PLUS version and adds the ability to create,
edit and delete your own puzzles. Simply enter a topic, title, list of
words and dimensions and push a button. Presto, the puzzle is created and
you now have the option of saving it to disk where it will appear with the
other puzzles in the list box. You may also vary the complexity level of the
created puzzle. An option to to create puzzles with no diagnol words, less
diagnols, average diagnols and more diagnols is also available.
What is Shareware?
Shareware is a marketing concept in which copyrighted software products
are distributed by allowing and encouraging duplication of the program
for evaluation by interested parties. As a recipient of a shareware
program, you are granted the right to use the program for a short period
to determine if it meets your needs. The program developer receives
payment from the users after they have determined that the product meets
their needs. The motivation for making payment for a shareware program
is honest payment for a valuable tool, desire for support, updates,
enhancements and documentation, and to help encourage shareware authors
to produce additional quality programs.
