Here is a series of games that you
can play to test your skill. Each of these games will present you with a matrix filled
with letters. The objective is to form words by concatenating adjacent letters. Letters
that are to the left, right, on top, bottom, or on a diagonal to each other are all
acceptable. A timer will count down and when time expires your score will be computed and
compared to the computer's score.

in a hurry. |
| SCORING |
Words are valued
at 1 point for each letter in excess of two letters. A three letter
word is worth 1 point, a four letter word is worth 2 points, and so
on. Words
formed by adding an s, 'ed', 'es', or 'er' are all valid. For
example, chase, chases, chaser, chased and chasing are all valid if
they can be made from adjacent letters in the matrix. |
