Practice beyond the first move
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Use the example to check your reasoning.
What you are aiming for
Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Keep the controls in easy reach.
How a round unfolds
- Read each displayed word.
- Choose New word or Seen before.
- Remember words from this round only.
- Three mistakes end the round.
Input guidance
Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.
A useful example
PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Consider the next action carefully.
Where a round can go wrong
A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. 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.
