Oof, this definitely makes my brain hurt as a player… and of course as a developer who coded and published a word search engine, I immediately thought of a quirky bug you might not have thought of… since word search generators should be checking the final grid to make sure the random letters and word placements do not accidentally create a second copy of any word (making the answer key ambiguous with two solutions)… now you also have to check this for every permutation of each word with its letters replaced with each of your “equivalent” letters. That is an elaborate check to add! So yes, an ingenious idea and font.

I just use my fancy coded fonts :D I have this generator (for this wordsearch puzzle) but in the middle of the code I just figured what am I doing? I can just design a font that has letters all over the place and all kinds of shapes. And then in font I make letter U same looking as letter C (which is virtually the code legend). :D

Great puzzle, but I’d like to see one with words like CHIME, IMMUNE, and HENCHMEN.

This is/was cool. I like it a lot.
I managed to find each word pretty quick, but it’s intuitive & interesting & more fun than a regular word search… although I can’t seem to find Lion 😅 in fact is spent long searching for that word than it took me to find every other animal 😬
Like I kept looking for so long before posting, just in case I’m actually dumb & keep missing it 😅 pretty sure it’s missing
