RightWord
RightWord is a word game that resembles a popular game on Dutch television. There are a PPC and 68K versions; with this you have the PPC version. It's meant for both adults and children. The fun of playing RightWord is to find the 5-letter words (in English) of which RightWord presents the first letter. You can either play alone or against an opponent, on the same machine or via an internal network. There's also a factor of luck that makes RightWord even more attractive, which has to do with 'drawing balls' and achieving the word 'RIGHT' as column, row or diagonal in a colored grid. Further, there are 'red balls' to change the course of the game. Our Review: RightWord gets my vote as an entertaining word-game. The concept is an advancement on hangman whereby you are given a starting letter of a 5-letter word. Within five turns you have to guess the word by supplying valid 5-letter words that start with the given letter. RightWord indicates which letters are correct at each turn to increase your chance of success. RightWord has an additional aspect where a correct answer chooses another two numbers from an included bingo board; bonuses are given if the bingo board randomly produces a line. RightWord can be played competitively over a network or with two players sharing the same screen. Cool!
