Games Box Description
Games Box is an educational set of games designed to help non-English speaking students learn vocabulary. The program includes simple games, such as Fastfinger, Three in a Row, Matchmaker, Guess What!, Millionaire, Hangman or Jigsaw.
Educational games in one package
Games Box includes a series of games that students can play and improve their English vocabulary. The categories are simple and the level of difficulty is beginner: you can choose from folders such as objects in the house, family, jobs, numbers, verb or adjectives.
Some of the games, including Millionaire, Jigsaw or Hangman are designed to be played individually. Meanwhile, Fastfinger, Three in a Row, Matchmaker and Guess what! are created as competitive games, therefore they must be played in pairs.
Moreover, you can easily choose between the English and American vocabularies. Most words are spelled the same, however there are certain differences, especially in the pronunciation.
Play games and learn words
Millionaire displays an image instead of a question and allows you to click on the word that correctly describes the picture. There are 15 tasks in the game and you can stop it at any time you wish. Jigsaw displays a picture as a puzzle board, hidden by several missing pieces; you need to guess the word based on the image fragments and the topic displayed at the top.
Fastfinger requires two players, each assigned a specific letter on the keyboard. Whoever guesses the image and presses the key first is the winner. Three in a Row and Matchmaker are rather individual games, but they are played in turns.
Digital assistant for non-English speakers
Games Box is a suitable solution for anyone who wishes to teach or to learn basic English words. With nearly 80 word categories, the program is designed to help you learn simple words encountered in everyday communication. It does not feature grammar exercises, only vocabulary.
