Your objective

Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. The example below illustrates a decision.

The playing sequence

  1. Read each displayed word.
  2. Choose New word or Seen before.
  3. Remember words from this round only.
  4. Three mistakes end the round.

Choosing and moving on screen

Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.

Put the rules into context

PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Consider the next action carefully.

Keep this in mind

A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
