WELCOME TO ELIMINATE!
ELIMINATE is a word game for kids from 9 to 90. The object of the game is
to guess the computer's secret word.
First select the length of the word you wish to try. There are 4, 5, 6, and
7-9 letter words to choose from. Next select the difficulty level. One is the
easiest and 3 the hardest.
As an example, let's say you choose to play 5 letter words and Level 1
difficulty. During this game you must enter 5 letter words only. Words of any
other length will be rejected. Now, for each word you enter during the game,
the computer will compare it to the secret word and display the number of
letters that match. On Level 1 it will also print the letters that are in the
correct postion.
For example, let's assume the computer's secret word is SHARE. If you enter
the word FLAIR, you would get the following display:
YOUR NUMBER POSITION
CLUE WORD MATCHED CORRECT
--------------------------------
1 - FLAIR 2 __A__
So there are two letters in your word that match the secret word but only
the 'A' is in the correct position.
If you were playing difficulty Level 2, the same example would appear as:
1 - FLAIR 2 1
And on difficulty Level 3 as:
1 - FLAIR 2
If you enter a word that has no matching letters, the computer will
ELIMINATE those letters from the alphabet at the bottom of the screen. The
[E]dit Alphabet option may be used to ELIMINATE those letters you yourself
determine are not part of the secret word.
