Word Work
Design Ware has introduced two word-related educational games.
Spellicopter and Crypto-Cube are both available for the Apple II and Atari computers for $39.95.
In Spellicopter, the pilot relies on keen memory, verbal, spelling, and navigational skills to rescue "stranded" letters and organize them into correctly spelled words.
Crypto-Cube gives puzzle lovers a challenge and a chance to build their vocabularies. The program has 50 puzzles built-in, and users can create their own word lists for the puzzle generator. The game features a rotating cube with crossword puzzle grids on each side. Players take turns uncovering letters to fill in the missing words.
