Activities[]
The game includes six activities. Before playing them, the player has to select a difficulty level A, B or C, which corresponds to Easy, Harder and Hardest respectively.
- Ice Cream Game — A sentence must be matched with one of the following elements: WHO, WHAT, DID WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY or HOW. Correct answers earn the player scoops of ice-cream, while incorrect ones lose them.
- Cake Game 1 — One of the elements WHO, WHAT, DID WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY or HOW must be found in a single sentence. If the answer is correct, the player can earn up to three layers on a carrot cake, or get no cake if the answer is incorrect three times.
- Cake Game 2 — Like Cake Game 1, but requires the player to choose multiple words that make up the WHO, WHAT, DID WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY or HOW.
- Cake Game 3 — Like Cake Game 2, but requires the player to choose multiple elements in the order that matches the current sentence.
- Juice Game — The player must determine if a string of text is a sentence or not. If the text is not a sentence, there are options to complete it, then choose the correct order of the sentence. Correct answers are worth cups of carrot juice.
- Silly Story Party — Players can write their own stories from scratch or from a list of story fragments.
