Play Word Recall with the rules at hand
Word Recall gives you a focused activity to play in your browser. Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Use the example below to understand a decision. Choose a comfortable screen position before beginning. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Included vocabulary and random repeats; a game, not a medical memory assessment.
A small practice goal
Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Make the next step deliberately.
Understand the aim
Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. 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.
Using the playing area
Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. 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. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the game’s format in mind.
A mistake to avoid
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. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
