Space Words

1. Look at the picture at the top of the screen.
2. Type the word it shows; the boxes at the bottom tell you how many letters it has.
3. Use the hint in the speech bubble if you are unsure how the word starts.
4. Move with the arrow keys or WASD and shoot with Space, X or L.
5. Keep your ship flying and push your score past your best.

Space Words mixes a small space shooter with a spelling quiz. A picture appears in the middle of the screen, for example a truck, and a row of empty boxes at the bottom shows how many letters its name has. Your job is to type the word that matches the picture. A speech bubble next to your ship gives a nudge when you need one, such as telling you that the first letter is a consonant. Meanwhile you still have a ship to fly: move it with the arrow keys or WASD and fire with Space, X or L, and on a touch screen an on-screen pad and fire button do the same. Your score is shown at the top next to your best. It is a playful way to build vocabulary and spelling as well as typing.
