Changes to MERGE Game

I took some time to redo the MERGE game on roadtogrammar.com to make it a little easier for English learners and, hopefully, more fun, too.

The object of the game is still the same, to change one word to another word, one letter at a time.

You can play the new version here: http://www.roadtogrammar.com/merge/

If you prefer the older version, you can find it here: http://www.roadtogrammar.com/merge2/

Word Molecules Game

Here is a new game for English learners and word game fans.

The aim of Word Molecules is to solve a clue and find a word. To find the word, you need to click on connecting 'molecules'.

Most of the words are taken from an A2 word list, so it should be suitable for A1-low B1 level learners.

It also plays nicely on a smartphone.

Try it here:

This is a simple game very well-suited to ESL Learners. You are given a five-letter word but only shown the first and last letters. You have to guess the middle letters each from a set of two options:

You win when you guess the complete word. You get between 10-100 points depending on how many tries you needed. You get an additional 200-point bonus after every five rounds. You get a chance to view the meaning each word you guess.

As you finish more levels, you will get longer words and you will need to beat a timer. Why not see if you can get a high score?

This game can be played on a smartphone or tablet. If you are looking for a more challenging version (not recommended for ESL learners), try the original version here: www.flashbynight.com/rabbip
