A strange birthday present gives strange results.
Text Terminator
A short text is displayed with each letter of each word replaced by a symbol***, leaving only the title, punctuation and spacing intact. You reconstruct the text by listening to a text, then guessing (typing in) one word at a time. If you are correct the words are displayed wherever they appear, and in this way you reconstruct the whole text.
To listen to the text click the first word in the paragraph.
To see if a word exists in the text, enter a word into the text field and click 'Guess' or press 'Enter'.
The following help is available to you:
Click 'Next letter' to reveal the next letter of the next incomplete word.
Click 'See a word' to reveal an incomplete word of your choice.
Press and hold down 'Show all' to see the full text.
If a highlighted word has an image clue attached, press and hold down to see it.
If a highlighted word has a sound clue attached, click on it once and then click again on the audio icon to listen.
The scores are calculated as follows:
Word is guessed correctly: +7 points Word is guessed incorrectly: -4 points Next letter' help feature is used: -1 point 'See a word' help feature is used: -5 points 'Show all' help feature is used: -15 points An image or sound hint is used: -2 points
The points are then totalled to provide the score (and if the result is negative then the score is given as 0).
