Under this slightly long title there is an educational game for children under eight years of age, which allows you to record simple words in English by playing.
At the beginning we determine the difficulty of the game, which translates into the speed of movement of enemies and the length of words to be completed with letters scattered here and there, because it is the layout of words that is the main goal of the game. In order to successfully complete the struggle, you need to wade through several graphically diverse locations. More and more characters (Sylwester cat, Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam) appear on each board, who want to prevent us from completing the task. Luckily, the Duffy Duffy duck is equipped with an unlimited number of bananas that can be thrown at opponents. Each hit enemy will stop for a moment, which will allow us to pass by him without losing additional "life".
In addition to the traditional stages, where randomly selected words are completed with letters, the game also includes several bonus boards. They resemble traditional paper "plotters": among randomly scattered letters one has to find meaningful words (e.g. "tree", "eggs" or "eyes").
The game is characterized by simple graphics in low resolution. The undeniable advantage is the fact that all characters that appear in the program come from Warner Bros cartoons. It has been known for a long time that the child is more willing to learn by seeing well-known and liked characters on the monitor screen. Due to the fact that the programme works only in English, in Poland it can be used to assimilate foreign words.
