Star Wars Word Search

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away... our Star Wars word search hides the heroes, villains and droids of the saga, from young LUKE to the dreaded Darth VADER, in a grid of letters. Pick a difficulty and may the Force be with you.

Heroes of the Rebellion

Star Wars is one of the biggest stories ever told, and this word search gathers its legends. You'll start with farm boy LUKE SKYWALKER, Princess LEIA, the smuggler HAN SOLO and his co-pilot CHEWBACCA the WOOKIEE, plus the wise old JEDI master YODA.

Each puzzle pulls a fresh selection from the list, so the galaxy is rearranged every time you play β€” gentle on Easy for padawans, and a Hard-mode mission once the diagonals and backwards words appear.

The dark side and the wider galaxy

The villains and the worlds are all here. Track down Darth VADER, the SITH and the evil EMPIRE, the desert planet TATOOINE, the fuzzy EWOK, a trusty DROID, and Han's ship the Millennium FALCON. We've hidden OBI-WAN, PADME, the gangster JABBA, the REBEL alliance, the power of the FORCE, and the planet-destroying DEATH STAR for true fans.

The saga that changed cinema

Star Wars was created by writer-director George Lucas, and the very first film arrived in 1977 β€” later subtitled 'A New Hope'. Its dazzling special effects were so far ahead of their time that Lucas had to build a whole new company, Industrial Light & Magic, to achieve them, and the film became a phenomenon that reshaped the movie business.

The story grew into the original trilogy, a set of prequels, and later sequels, with Disney buying Lucasfilm in 2012 and expanding the galaxy into hit TV shows too. Across it all runs the same timeless tale: the light side of the Force against the dark, the Rebellion against the Empire.
