<text> The goal of this game is, by a process of deduction, to make up five 5-letter "words" (letter combinations) which add up to the highest score. The highest possible score is 600. With each game, each letter of the alphabet is given a unique value from 1 to 26. The problem is for you to identify which letters have the highest value. First, the computer will display ten 5-letter words (letter combinations) and show the total value of all 5 letters for each word. Using this information, the clue words, you can begin to deduce a letter's value. You are then prompted to type in five 5-letter words. As each word is inputted, the word and it's total value is displayed. This information may provide a further clue about which letters to use for the next word. Unlike the clue words, your 5 words of five letters each cannot contain any letter more than once in a word. You may type in any clue word as your word if it meets that rule. You may type in the same word repeatedly if you think you hit a winning combination. After the 5 words are typed in, you will see your total score and be able to compare it with previous scores by clicking the "SHOW SCORES" button. ( You can hide the SCORES display by clicking on it. You can clear the SCORES display by clicking on the 'CLEAR SCORES" button. ) You will also see a line of all twenty six letters of the alphabet which represents each letter's value, the left-most letter is 1 and the right-most letter is 26. This is so you will be able to moan about which letters you should have picked! Good luck. << CLICK HERE TO RESUME>> </text>
