Hi :-) <br><br>I believe this is really a good idea. How to you get to the letters? By taking words and extract the letters from there? So you know from the beginning what "at least" must be in there?<br><br>We (Vox Humanitatis) need mainly educational games for primary school age and this would be a nice one. What about giving hints in terms of pictures, in particular when kids are playing? <br>
<br>As for words: we already have plenty of wordlists with basic terminology for quite some languages. These could be used here. <br><br>If possible, please consider right to left languages, and different scripts like Cyrillic, Arabic, Hebrew etc.<br>
<br>As for the game itself: keep it as simple as possible for people to understand - this makes sure they will play.<br><br>Sabine<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Mar 18, 2010 at 7:00 PM, Keval Vora <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:kevalvora@gmail.com">kevalvora@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>Here, a 4X4 or 5X5 grid is given fully filled with random letters. The player is supposed to make as many possible words as he / she can in a given amount of time. Words can be formed if a letter of the word is connected to the previous letter. By connected letters I mean, 2 letters can either share a common edge (4 sides of a cell) or they can share a common point (4 corners of the cell).<br>
<br>For example in the following grid,<br>s t r a<br>i c p m<br>o r b e<br>e l p z<br><br>"scramble" is a word.<br>Hence, this game can be used for building vocabulary of people belonging to various age groups.<br>
<br>I would like to discuss about "Scramble" as a project and I would be happy to know any other suggestions in the game to make it more interesting.<br><font color="#888888">
