Correct Word drops you into a kids challenge you can start in a couple of seconds. It leans on word and for kids, so expect plenty of replay value. It works the same on desktop, tablet and phone, and your progress picks up where the game left it.
About Correct Word
“Correct Word” is an educational game designed to help children learn words or exercise existing knowledge.
How to play Correct Word
The opening minute doubles as the tutorial. On desktop the arrow keys / WASD do the moving; the full mapping is in the table below. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. Take the first run as practice and the second one seriously.

|---|---|
| Mouse | Navigate menus and interact |

Why it is worth playing
