Keep your audience entertained
Its a great concept for anybody who likes word searches, I myself am not one such fan, but i wont be biased with that as i write this.
First off, the counter is kind of annoying, i found myself being distracted with only 10 seconds left to find a word, then again, without it the game would be much less of a challenge right? I think if you made it less flashy, (or turning white and big and all) it would probably stand out less... (it might just be my eyes, who knows)
Also, the game gets boring fast, try to find some sort of gimmick that can keep people wanting more. (perhaps like a storyline... *is going to rant, i just know it* maybe like this kid who goes to a world wordfind competition...have little cutscenes inbetween each one? that would be cool)
I've ranted enough, so good job, ciao
