Keyboard: arrows to move, Enter to start a word, arrows to extend, Enter again to confirm, Esc to cancel.

Two new directions open up here: downward to the right, and upward to the right. Letters still follow each other in normal reading order, so a word found on a diagonal reads exactly as it does on the list. What changes is where you have to look, and how often a promising letter turns out to belong to something else.

The list at this size carries the full range of the theme, from a passing breeze to the named storms that arrive with a warning. Long entries anchor the grid; the short ones drift into whatever space is left. For most adults this is the format that feels like a proper sitting rather than a quick distraction.

Clear the rows and columns first, then change how you look entirely: follow a single diagonal from edge to edge before starting the next one.
