Find your footing in Word Recall

Open Word Recall, check the instructions and begin a round. Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.

Included vocabulary and random repeats; a game, not a medical memory assessment.

Give this approach a try

Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Refer to the controls when needed.

The purpose of your moves

Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Start with a deliberate move.

Work through the instructions

  1. Read each displayed word.
  2. Choose New word or Seen before.
  3. Remember words from this round only.
  4. Three mistakes end the round.

How to use the controls

Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.

An example before you play

PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Take a moment to compare.

Keep this in mind

A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
