Rules, controls and help for Word Recall
Bring your attention to one round of Word Recall. Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Look at what changes after your first action. Read the objective before making your first input. Use the example below to understand a decision.
Included vocabulary and random repeats; a game, not a medical memory assessment.
Practice with a purpose
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. Make the next step deliberately.
The objective of a round
Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Take a moment to understand the current position.
Step by step
- Read each displayed word.
- Choose New word or Seen before.
- Remember words from this round only.
- Three mistakes end the round.
Getting comfortable with the controls
Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
See the idea in action
PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Keep the controls nearby.
A mistake to avoid
A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. Check the rule before repeating the action. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
