Scramble
Selecting SCRAMBLE from the Home Menu
will take you to the Scramble Play
Screen.
A D E L
Scramble starts with 4-letter words.
Level 1 is displayed and you must com-
plete all 4-letter word scrambles and
achieve a good score to progress to the
next level. Higher levels use words with
more letters. There are three levels.
The bottom line on the screen is the letter
Rack and displays the scrambled letters
of the word. Spell the unscrambled word
by pressing on the words letters in the
correct order. When a letter is pressed it
moves up into the Spelled Word line.
Once all letters are spelled, the word is
checked, and if it is correct the score is
updated and the next scrambled letter
word is displayed. However, if more than
one word can be spelled using those let-
ters, your correct word will move up to
the anagram area. The Spelled Word line
will be cleared and the scrambled letters
will return to the letter Rack. The above
example screen shows there are four
words that can be made with
A D E L.
You will always have 15 seconds to
unscramble the word. But if there are
anagrams (more than one word that can
be spelled from the letters) an additional
time will be added to the timer for each
word correctly unscrambled.
When time runs out TIMEOVER will be
displayed. The unscrambled word will
also be displayed, but un-spelled ana-
gram words will not be displayed. Press
any key to continue play.
KEY
Press the key to clear the letters from

enough score to go to the next level, the

key to return to the Home Menu.
