In this game kids (and parents) will try to figure out and spell the word that connects three pictures. When you do, you are rewarded with stars that buys really cool and funny collectors cards. Every level has lifelines to help you along if you get stuck. Try not to use them unless you really have to as solving a level on your own will give you the option to save your earned stars for later so that you can afford the hard to get cards at the top of the deck. Happi Words has been meticulously crafted to be: • Hard to put down (you will want to win all the cards, we promise) • Educational (you will have to use both your logic and spelling skills) • Strategic (should I get this card now or save up for a more expensive one) • Clever (every card has a funny name and status message) • Beautiful (just look at the screen shots…:-) • Passed around as it gives you the option to create different user profiles Special note to parents: All collectors cards have a name and a short status message which have been purposefully designed to, on occasion, spur questions from your child. We have done so because we believe in involving the parent in the gaming experience. You should expect to hear questions like: What does this mean, how is this funny, why did they call him that…
