WordPang

Stop memorizing. Start discovering! Is memorizing word lists not working for your child? WordPang is a word puzzle game where kids "discover" English words — not memorize them. Type a letter, get color-coded feedback. Green = right spot. Orange = wrong spot. Brown = not in the word. Deduce, guess, solve — PANG! You get there by working it out, not by memorizing it. An English app a child opens on their own. — That's the experience we set out to build. -------------------- DESIGNED FROM RESEARCH -------------------- WordPang's learning design draws on the studies below.
