How to play Word Recall
Word Recall gives you a focused activity to play in your browser. Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Begin with the solo mode shown on the page. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Included vocabulary and random repeats; a game, not a medical memory assessment.
Keep the aim in sight
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. Keep the objective visible.
Your goal
Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. The example below illustrates a decision.
Step by step
- Read each displayed word.
- Choose New word or Seen before.
- Remember words from this round only.
- Three mistakes end the round.
Controls
Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
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.
Watch out for this
A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. Compare the situation with the worked example. 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.
