Educational, challenging and fun from age 6  up, the Beginner’s version of HyperJotto provides the most information with each guess. Not only are you told exactly which letters are in common between your guess and the hidden word, but also exactly where in the word the letters are.

Notice that your guesses do not have to include the letters you already know — often you can find out more by using words with completely different letters.

If you are having trouble keeping track of things, click on “AlphaPad” for help.
