Know the goal in Word Recall

Start Word Recall by looking at the playing area and its controls. Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Use the example below to understand a decision.

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

One thing to notice as you play

Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Notice the feedback after each input.

Aim for this result

Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Check the rules when you are unsure.

Making your moves

  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.

Choosing and moving on screen

Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.

A useful example

PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Read the matching step again.

Check this before moving on

A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. Compare the situation with the worked example. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
