Word Blocks is a fast matching game on a board of 24 picture blocks, where children clear blocks by tapping the two that show the same word.
How it plays
- 24 picture blocks fill a board of four columns and six rows.
- Tap a block to hear its word.
- Tap the other block with the same word. Both clear, and the blocks above drop down.
- New blocks keep arriving from the top as you match.
- Quick chains of matches earn combo points, which multiply the score up to four times.
- Clear the board to finish the round.
Two languages, or one
With two languages, a pair is the same picture in each language, and each block says its own language's word when tapped. With one language, a pair is two blocks of the same picture in that language.
What it practises
- Quick recognition of pictures and words
- Attention and a little speed
- Hearing every word repeatedly as blocks are matched
