WHAT YOU
SHOULD SEE
The game begins with the category
of words, then runs through a short
countdown. When the first round starts,
the word to be guessed is displayed at
top left, and a countdown starts in the
bottom right. Each time the button is
pressed (before the timer expires) a new
word is displayed. If you win or lose, a
short song will play.
