Build familiarity through play

Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Make the next step deliberately.

The challenge in front of you

Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Start with a deliberate move.

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.

Put the rules into context

PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Check the stated objective.

Check this before moving on

A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. Compare the situation with the worked example. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
