Word Search is another game that is only on the old ROM card version. It
was orginally called Dell Crossword & other Word Games. The other two games
are Word Search (it is where you find a list of words hidden in a mess of
letters) and Crypto where you decypher words that are jumbled up. All three
games had seperate puzzle packs, and I agree it would be great to find more.
Perhaps someone could also find out a way to convert Word Search puzzles
from other sites to the Dell format? :)

Also I posted some things I found some interesting things on the UNNA
version vs the older ROM card version. While the packs on UNNA do work with
the ROM card, there can be conflicts. For some reason the subject says "No
date" and gives the date and time it was posted. Odd since I did not send
it that way.
