From playtesting findings:
* Pools nearly doubled (115/104 → 228/201) with calm/neutral everyday words
(claps, dance, drench, beach…), not just strictly-upbeat ones — more variety,
~7-month runway. The post-solve "why" prompt reworded to fit neutral words.
* Word Search now stores one theme + word list per day; the grid is built per
request for three SIZE tiers — Small (8×8, 6 words), Medium (11×11, 9),
Large (14×14, 13). Large packs more words = a longer sit ("too fast" fix).
All sizes share the day's theme; every size still code-placed + solvable.
* Word Search themes can now be neutral everyday scenes ("Around the house",
"At the beach", "In the kitchen", "A walk outdoors", "Making music"…), not
only hopeful — same shape as the articles.
* Each found word gets its own colour from a calm palette, in the grid and its
word-list chip. Per-size local progress + best time.
