WORD SLIDE PUZZLES
Version 4.0
UNIQUE and FASCINATING! Word Slide Puzzles is a series of Slide
Puzzle Games that are colorful, entertaining and educational.
Each move is counted and there is an on screen timer. There
are options for time-out, reset the low-record scores, change
colors of the puzzle frame, turn on/off the automatic-frame-
changing colors after fifteen seconds, and to turn on/off the
"celebrating". All necessary instructions can be accessed by
pressing the F1 key, at anytime. Answers can be peeked at, one
letter at a time, by pressing a function key. Penalty points
are given for each peek. Each Registered Series of Puzzles
comes with hundreds of different words and clues that are not
on the Shareware Series, and anyone registering two or more
Programs in the Series will receive the $25.00 Word Slide Puzzle
Editor, FREE. The Editor allows the users to create puzzles
using any words of their choice.
There are Programs in the Series that give English clues and
require either English, French, German, Italian, or Spanish word
answers. Also, there are Programs in the Series that give either
French, German, Italian, or Spanish clues and require English
word answers. The Puzzles come in either 5 letter word versions
(in a 3 x 2 grid) or 8 letter word versions (in a 3 x 3 grid).
Each Puzzle Word is scrambled using a special method, and results
in thousands of possible puzzles for each 8 letter word and
hundreds of possible puzzles for each 5 letter word. Each puzzle
is guaranteed to be solvable. A little bit of the scrambling is
shown on screen for additional excitement.
The object of the game is to match the answer to the clue and
move the letters around in the grid until the player has spelled
the correct answer. The computer will alert the player when the
correct answer has been placed in its correct positioning inside
the grid, and will alert the player when a new record has been
set.
