How To Play Rainfall Arcade:
WORD ZOO GOAL
Achieve a high score by submitting acceptable words.
WORD ZOO PROCESS
A new letter is dropped onto the board once the previous letter lands on top of another letter or reaches the bottom of the board.
Click on letters to select them, ultimately forming an acceptable word.
Click to the left or right of a falling letter (or press the left or right arrow key) to move it one column in the corresponding direction if space is available.
Click on a falling letter (or press the down arrow key) to make it drop much faster. Once the letter lands, it will be selected if it can be.
Click on any of the selected letters or the 'Submit' button to submit the word for comparision against ZooEscape.com's dictionary.
The selected letters of an accepted word are removed from the board.
If the submitted word is accepted, the score for that word is added to the player's current score. Otherwise, the selected letters are cleared.
A Bonus Letter may be randomly awarded based on word length. The longer the word, the better the chance of receiving a bonus.
Bonuses awarded are 'Double Highest Letter', 'Triple Highest Letter', 'Double Word', and 'Triple Word'.
Double Letter and Triple Letter bonuses are applied first to the highest letter value and then Double and/or Triple Word bonuses are applied. Multiple bonuses of the same type are added.
Unused Bonus Letters expire after 5 attempts.
If the player's current score exceeds their high score, the 'Submit Score' button is enabled and the player may submit their score at that time.
Submitting a high score ends the current game.
The game ends once there are no empty spaces on the board. A high score can be submitted at that time.
The game can be paused, which stops the clock until the game is resumed by pressing the 'Resume' button.
WORD ZOO CONSTRAINTS
Letters must be adjacent. Adjacent letters are neighboring letters including diagonal (i.e. letters that share an edge or a corner).
Words must be at least 2 letters and at most 15 letters.
Acceptable words are words that are found in ZooEscape.com's dictionary (based on the modern American English language).
