Magazine: Wordsearch is a puzzle magazine full of word search grids. It is a piece of literature that passes the time and calms the nerves.
Finding the hidden words lowers boredom and eases a little stress. The magazine is used up once it has been read, since the puzzles are done. It is light and very common in homes.
A spare copy has other uses too. It burns in a fire, and it can be bound into magazine armour.
Bathrooms, bedrooms, closets and attics hold plenty, and store magazine racks stock them as well.
Reading
A Magazine: Wordsearch is read like any magazine. Working through the grids brings a fair drop in boredom and a small drop in stress. The magazine then disappears from the inventory, so each copy gives its relief only once.
It matches the Magazine: Crossword in every way, from its effect on mood to where it turns up. A Magazine: TV Monthly gives the same relief and can be read again. HottieZ eases stress far more for anyone who wants a stronger effect.
The puzzles suit a quiet evening at a base or a stormy day indoors. A few copies kept at a safehouse make long waits easier.
Make Magazine Body Armor takes magazines and needs Tailoring level 1. Make Magazine Limb Armor takes them with no skill needed. A spare puzzle book is a cheap start on light armour. As fuel, a copy burns for about seven and a half minutes.

Magazine shelves in gas stations, convenience stores and grocery stores hold one in about one time in eight. Garage storage, changing room lockers and movie rental lockers turn one up now and then. It is a common find in almost any house.
