How to play it

It's simple. Match the name to the picture. You have 20 seconds to identify the name of the main object in the picture while it is slowly revealed. Click on the name below the picture which you think it is.

The quicker you identify the picture, the more points you get. However, if you guess wrong you won't be able to make another guess for 1.5 seconds. Also, the less wrong guesses you make in the game, the more bonus points you are given at the end.

Press the 'Play The Game' button to take you to the start of the game.

Different versions of the game

Although the content (the vocabulary and images/photos) is the same, the version of this game is different between when you play it on a mobile phone and when you play it on a bigger screen device (like on a laptop, a desktop or a large interactive board screen). The game on bigger screen devices has been designed for more classroom environments.
