Epic Word Search Collection 2

Lightwood Games have announced their latest game for the Nintendo Switch: Epic Word Search Collection 2. It will be released on July 23rd in Europe and North America.

Here’s some details, the list of puzzles included, and some screenshots:

An Epic Word Search puzzle is a giant scrolling monster of a word search, with around 1,500 words hidden in a massive grid of more than 14,000 letters. The sheer size of a puzzle means it takes even the most avid word puzzler about ten hours to complete each one! Fortunately, the game is optimised to load quickly so you can pick up right where you left off whenever you have a spare moment.

Epic America Word Search – Travel Route 66, head west for the Gold Rush and explore America’s parks and beaches. You’ll take in a ball game, eat the ultimate hamburger and look up at skyscrapers. They even put a man on the moon – can you find him?
Epic Monster Word Search – Prepare for a scare! You’ll encounter monsters from outer space, the ocean and the movies. You’ll run away from vampires, werewolves and serial killers. And of course… how could this game be complete without zombies?
Epic Rock Word Search – Cheer on your favourite bands, play the drums, choose a new guitar, run through the back catalogues of The Rolling Stones and Metallica and rock out to classics like Bohemian Rhapsody and Stairway To Heaven. Are you ready to rock?
Epic Summer Word Search – You’ll travel the world, go camping and sailing, and do a little gardening. You’ll contemplate a hundred words about the sun, and then cool off with an ice cream. This puzzle’s so bright, you’re going to need shades!
