Word Recall: rules and examples

Take a moment with Word Recall before moving to another game. Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.

Included vocabulary and random repeats; a game, not a medical memory assessment.

An idea for your next attempt

Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Refer to the controls when needed.

What you need to achieve

Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Take a moment to understand the current position.

Start here and follow along

  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.

Using the playing area

Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

One way to understand the rules

PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Look for the relevant detail.

A useful caution

A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. A different version of the game may use a different rule. 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.
