EDUCATIONAL
PLAY
Questique
is a word game that can be played at different levels, accommodating a wide
range of abilities, from young children to adults. It can be used as a
language teaching aid in home, school and further educational situations.
It helps specifically with word appreciation, spelling and vocabulary
development.
Individual
Crosswords
Players develop their own individual crosswords, so they are able to plan and construct them to their own vocabulary capabilities.
Individual Crossword Arrangement
The individual crossword arrangement facilitates open play and freedom of expression.
Handicapping
System
A
simple handicapping system allows players of mixed abilities to all play
together and compete as equals.
Solo
Play
The
normal game options create interaction between players. The solo option can be
used to focus purely on the task of word creation.
Partner Play
Unskilled players are partnered with skilled players.
Partners still develop their own crosswords but it allows the skilled
players to help the unskilled players.
Fast
Play
Instead of taken
turns players develop their crossword as and
when they think of a word, so the game flows quickly.
Token
Play
Players are rewarded each time their crossword covers a
star square, so it is not just the ultimate winner who feels a sense of
achievement.
