Start by selecting the size of the word
square, using the arrow keys and ENTER
– see the illustrations in § 4.7.
The object is to form words from the
letters in the square, following the same

a suggestion, several players may write
down their word lists, stopping when
the computerʼs “chimes” announce
that the time is up. After that, you may
press SOLVE (and confi rm with UP
OR DOWN and ENTER) to see the
computerʼs own word list.
