(PSP Review) Spelling Challenges and More review
Spelling Challenges and More! is, as you can deduce, a spelling game. I’m still unsure why they decided to put “More” as there is absolutely nothing more than just spelling challenges. As you’d expect from a spelling challenge game, your goal is to spell words. There are typical spelling bee (listen to audio and spell the word), find the correctly spelled word, jig letters around to spell a word, picking nouns and such. There are about 100 levels of challenge, as you progress through harder and harder words.
It is certainly a budget title, and it shows as the main game is played on a pink/red background with yellow/gold letters. There are no other backgrounds, animated cutscenes nor cinematics. Not that a spelling game needs all that, but if you’re going to pay for a spelling game, wouldn’t you want something more than what can be done as a free Flash game? If you want your children to learn how to spell while pretending to play a videogame, this is a perfect Christmas purchase. Everybody else should just stay clear.
