Word Recall: instructions and practice

Choose a round of Word Recall and settle into its rules. 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. Look at what changes after your first action.

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

PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the game’s format in mind.

Watch out for this

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