How to play

Start tapping letters on the game board. When all letters for a hidden word are tapped, it will be marked as found. When speech is turned on, tapping a letter or a word will pronounce it.

There are three levels of difficulty. On the Easy all letters can be selected. On Normal and Hard the game board is bigger and there are more hidden words, and after selectig the first letter, only adjacent letters going in the same direction can be selected. Also on Hard the hidden words can go in right-to-left or bottom-to-top direction. There is a special Selected Words game, in which a list of word groups is displayed (for example Numbers or Colors) and a game can be started with only the words from that group.
