Super Search Six!
Imagine a word-search, but you've got to figure out the words, too! Meet the SUPER SEARCH!
In this hexagonal grid, there are 36 hidden words (forwards, backwards, or diagonally) that fall under SIX categories. Circle the answers as you find them -- like with a traditional
word-search, letters can be used in multiple words.
When you are finished, there will be 9 letters that aren't used in any words, which, when written in order, will give you your final code.
Your SIX word categories (with six words each): Noble Gases, One-Word TV Shows Named After the Main Character (that had at least 3 seasons), Michigan Cities and Townships with Populations over 50,000, Sandwiches, Deodorant Brands, Types of Bodies of Water
All words have at least 3-letters, are not plural, and do not use abbreviations. No words are contained entirely within other words.

Got the code but I had 7 deodorant brands and 5 types of bodies of water.

Glad you got the code! If it's driving you BANANAS to not have the puzzle perfectly worked out, you can email a list of words you found in each category to supersearchhelp@aadl.org and we can do some digging! Thanks for playing!!

I got the code, but with 7 TV shows and 5 deodorant brands!
SAME!

Got multiple cities but some were too small.
Got word starting with T as a Michigan city or twonship, a brand of deodorant and as a type of British ham sandwich?
Hi There! We just responded…
Hi There! We just responded to your email! That word you're referring to is the CITY! (Thanks for playing!!!)

I'm going to miss these puzzles when the summer games are over!!!

Do we get extra points if we solve it with 38 words instead of 36?? IM KIDDING ;p This one was tricky, I had to do more googling than usual to be sure I had the right categories for the answers!!
Is the word that is also the…
Is the word that is also the name of a very popular singer under the sandwich category? I figured pork roll sandwiches were targeted there, but I'm also not 100% sure the word is even supposed to be included. I was still able to solve the puzzle though
I think the singer is in the…
I think the singer is in the tv show category
I think it's actually in the…
I think it's actually in the city/township category (which I found surprising)
I *think* the word you're…
I *think* the word you're talking about is ACTUALLY part of the CITY category, not the first name of a VERY popular singer. Though a pretty popular singer IS a part of the TV category, since she starred in a sitcom named after her in the 2000s. Who knew this week's Super Search would end up feeling a little like Connections!! Regardless, thanks for playing!!!!
I love how a TV show looks…
I love how a TV show looks like a city and how a city looks like a TV show; I also ran into a word I thought may be a deodorant or TV show but turned out to be a sandwich!
Oh dear. I (thought I) had…
Oh dear. I (thought I) had all of the TV shows by the time I gave up and came here for help, but I definitely did not look at the three-season rule! Thankfully, I figured this one out and all of the other letters go with other words. Though, of course, now I've got a different TV show in here that also didn't run for three seasons...
Much easier than the last…
Much easier than the last one!! Thanks!!
I love these puzzles! This…
I love these puzzles!
This time I found seven TV shows (one not 3 seasons, yet, but it IS also a sandwich) and seven deodorants (one brand has a 3 letter name, but it is not a puzzle clue, and includes one letter of the code)
FUN!
This was a quick one for me!…
This was a quick one for me! Can't wait for puzzle 7!

Loved this one and love these puzzles every week! Thanks so much for making them!
