New Game – JP Ospina

The game I played that I have never played before was the game Word Connect on iOS. It is a word creation game where you have to connect a series of letters to make words that fill in the empty blocks. I have played plenty of word games before but this one was different in the way you created the words and how to move on throughout levels. It got more and more challenging as I progressed through it and again the basic premise of the game is to build words. There were also other modes where you can do crosswords. As for relating it to the class, the game does a good job of having the player use their critical thinking skills to get through these challenges and it also can be a good teaching tool where you can create a game that has a whole bunch of history terms and connect them to the right time period or lesson.
