Play Word Recall with the rules at hand
Make Word Recall your next activity in the game library. Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Choose a comfortable screen position before beginning. Use the example below to understand a decision.
Included vocabulary and random repeats; a game, not a medical memory assessment.
One thing to notice as you play
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Keep the objective visible.
Aim for this result
Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Check the rules when you are unsure.
The steps to play
- Read each displayed word.
- Choose New word or Seen before.
- Remember words from this round only.
- Three mistakes end the round.
Keyboard and screen controls
Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
See the idea in action
PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Notice the change in the playing area.
A mistake to avoid
A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. Compare the situation with the worked example. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
