Information about “WORD PLAY”

This game is the third in a series of visual puzzles from the author of
Maze Cube (PC-SIG disk# 1419) and Wreck Tangle (PC-SIG disk# 1836). If
you enjoyed these programs, then WORD PLAY will give you an even
greater challenge.

You're presented with shuffled letters that are required to create
given words. Completion of each word displays a matching meaning. The
game continues until exact placement of all letters is correct. Sound
easy? You will be struggling to approach the top scores on any level
without lots of practice. The exciting challenge is to achieve this in
the least number of moves.

25 different puzzles of varying degrees of difficulty are included. The
top ten scores for each puzzle are recorded and the Masters
Scoreboard displays the scores of the world's best player for each
level.

A nice feature is the Autoplay facility which replays your best game so
you can see where improvements can be made. You can also easily design
your own puzzles, up to a maximum of 99 different games. WORD PLAY is
entirely menu-driven and provides thorough on-screen instructions.
