     How to Play WordZap
     
    Start with "EasyZap", the easiest form of WordZap.  In EasyZap, you make 3-6 letter words by clicking on any letter on the left to make words in the tray on the right: 
      

      

    Note: Click on this to see the new graphics full size. The remaining images are shown using the old graphics since they are much faster to download.

    Your opponent's words are represented in a darker shade of green. In this example, he has made five words to your three.  It's a race to see who can make seven unique words first. If you both make the same word, the word is Zapped - i.e. removed from both your lists. 

    Your opponent can be a person you challenged over the Internet or your computer simulating such an opponent. You can't tell -- at least not by looking at the screen. (If in doubt, check the Opponents menu). 

    "LongZap" is a variation of EasyZap where only 4-6 letter words are allowed. 
    The real fun starts when you move up to "WordZap".  You can start a word with any letter but after that you can only use letters next to the ones you have already taken. Suppose these are your starting tiles ... 
      

      
      
    Suppose you click on the F to start your first word. After transferring it, you can only click on E, B, H, or I (which are next to the transferred F).... Click on I, and you can then also use the letters L or O (which are next to the transferred I).... Click on L and you can also use the other F.... 
      
      

    The tiles now available to complete the word have been outlined. Diagonals are not allowed. To finish the word FILE, you can use the E at the top next to the original F but you cannot use the E diagonal to the original L. 
     
    After you have mastered these three levels, try "MatchZap" -- the game that WordZap experts love the best.
