Fount of Inspiration: Word Games!
Need a quick break from studying? Try some of the word games below to flex your mental muscles.
Like Tetris and Boggle combined into one. Letters float down the screen; click-and-drag across adjacent letters to form English words. If you have selected a valid English word, the letters will 'pop' away; the letters above will fall to take their place.
In this multiple choice vocabulary quiz, click on the answer that best defines the word. If you get it right, you get a harder word. If wrong, you get an easier word. For each word you get right, the site donates 20 grains of rice to the United Nations World Food Program.
Open the vaults by spelling valid English words using letters available on the combination locks. Make words by clicking or typing the letters on the dials.
This online game is very similar to the board game Scrabble. Accumulate points by spelling English words with the tiles in your rack. Play alone or with an online opponent. (Mom says you can play one game; then get back to studying!)
