Spell-O-Gram, a word game that has a purpose and a twist. Think of it as a flash card application with scrambled words. You prepare the Dictionary (word list) from which words are drawn at random and displayed scrambled. Compatible Macintosh and Windows XP.
Spell-O-Gram includes a built-in, default word list of over 29,000 words (4 to 8 letters). One home schooler intends to use this application to drill her students on vocabulary, history, geography, etc. You make the Dictionary, a list of words, from which words show up scrambled in the game.
In this educational freeware there are five turns to a game and each turn lasts 30, 60 or 90 seconds, selectable by the user; a countdown is displayed to let you know when the end of the turn is near. When you click the "Start Game" button, you see in the Letter Pot field the scrambled letters of a word taken at random from the Dictionary. Your goal is to enter the unscrambled word. Enter your guess into Your Word and click on the "Enter" button (or press the Return key). If your word is the expected word, you are given points and the next scrambled word is displayed.
