Aura HD Extras: Word Scramble & Solitaire

[RZetlin]

Does anybody have the extra instructions on Word Scramble & Solitaire?

For Word Scramble, I select the words in the grid but nothing happens?

I am addicted to word scramble, on my Kobo Aura. I haven't seen any instructions. I just used trial and error. After you have selected the letters to form your word you must press/tap the last letter in the word again to enable your word to be recognised by the game.

For Solitaire I have only been able to successively play freecell.
In the upper-right corner are four free cells, where you temporarily store cards during play.

In the upper-left corner are four home cells, where you build the stacks needed to win.

You need to arrange the cards on the column in descending order and alternating red and black. i.e King of hearts then Queen of spades, then Jack of diamonds etc.

You need to move the cards from the columns to the home cells. Each stack must consist of a single suit, and start with an ace.

Also for word scramble: the letters must be adjacent (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally).

For solitaire: just look up the rules online since these are common games. You move a card by tapping on the card you want to move, then tapping where you want to move it to. You move a stack of cards by tapping on the card at the base of the stack, then tapping where you want to move it to. (Yeap, no drag and drop. No gestures.)

Wow, thanks for the tip. I was trying again and again but couldn't get anywhere.

Thank you for your help.

Word Scramble is picky on what words it can accept.

If you use short words like "to", "do", or "an", it doesn't count.

The game seems to accept only 4 letter words.

3 or more letters seem to work here.

Thanks for the tip on the Word Scamble. Nice little tool to flex the mind ready for Scrabble.

Sorry to come back to this old thread, but I was looking for instruction to play word scramble, and I have seen here some information. Now the question I have is: how can you change (if possible) the language?. In my ebook, it only works in English, and I would like to play also in Spanish.
