Poor implementation of the Wii remote

Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2016

Platform: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

I bought this game because I like learning and trivia games. While the content of this game is satisfactory, the implementation has some flaws. The worst game is the one that asks for the missing letter in a word, and requires you to write in that letter with your Wii remote. I feel like someone didn't test this out. It's very difficult to write a letter using the Wii-mote and the game. I kept trying to think of ways to write letters with one continuous line, but some letters make that impossible, like "A" or "H". And the computer will sometimes read in the wrong letter, because they are so difficult to write in well. In another game, you match words to definitions by dragging. While this works better than the letter writing game, it's still not easily accomplished with the remote.

In sum, while the concept of this game is good, the use of the Wii remote to play the games make this a frustrating endeavor.

This game could be fun for some, but could also be frustrating

Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2014

Platform: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

I have a Wii that I primarily use for exercise games, including all the dance games. However, I also have a small collection of other games that I have purchased to supplement my collection and for my niece and nephew to play (with or without me) when they are at my house. That was my purpose in purchasing "My Word Coach." I wanted a semi-educational game that would provide entertainment AND learning. "My Word Coach" somewhat fits my expectations.

My thoughts:
1) The "tutoring" provided is, at times, degrading. I do not appreciate the patronizing attitude of the "professor."
2) The actual gameplay is mixed in terms of ease and entertainment. For example, the "Missing Letter" game, in which one must use the Wii controller to spray paint the letter missing from provided words, is very difficult. The Wii often recognizes an E as an A, or an A as an H. This gets very frustrating!
3) The vocabulary chosen for inclusion in the game is a strange selection, with no theme, progression of difficulty, or other meaningful organization. I would have much preferred to see a theme or an example of these words used in context, not in isolation the way they are.

Overall, this game is a good $10 game, but I would not pay full price for it. It is certainly not the game I'd pick up as my first choice.

Wasn't sure we'd like it; but wanted to try a fun approach ...

Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2017

Platform: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

Unexpectedly enjoyable. Wasn't sure we'd like it; but wanted to try a fun approach to working on my boys' spelling. As you play, more games are added, which is really nice, as well. Would have liked to just zoom through some of it, but you're penalized for trying to do that... it wants you to work on a little every day. Oh, yeah, I need to get back to that...

Good Game

Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2013

Platform: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

If you like word games, this one is a good choice. There is quite a variety of games within the main game. You can choose level of difficulty. This game is not geared for kids although it would make a great educational game if a child is so inclined. There are options for solo games as well as playing with others. The only negative points I would make are that some words crop up multiple times even though you may have already come across them and sometimes the controls are not 100% responsive but acceptable overall.

Great fun by yourself and/or with others

Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2008

Platform: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

I am constantly looking to broaden my vocabulary, and challenge and test myself, which is why I was drawn to this game. You can play a variety of games by yourself but I prefer not to play alone too often or it becomes boring. A few of the different types of games you can choose from include:

~ You are given a word with a question mark in place of one of the letters. You must use your controller to spray paint the missing letter onto the screen.
~ You are given a word and must choose from two sets of definitions
~ You must unscramble letters from the middle of the screen to form a word
~ Letters are dropping into a "tetris" type of box. You must find words within the dropped letters to make them disappear. You want to avoid the letters filling to the top of the box.

...and so on.

You may play the multiplayer games with up to four people (individually, not collectively). Play with 3 other competitive people and you've got a fantastic party game! My friends and I enjoyed and played the multiplayer challenge. One example: A word is provided on the top of the screen where a question mark replaces one of the letters. Each corner of the screen has a letter. You begin in the center of the screen and each of you must quickly move your cursor into the corner of the letter you believe is the missing letter. Easy enough, but make it fast paced and insert 4 competitive people & and it is a riot. It's hilarious when you see everyone's cursor move into one corner and you automatically follow... and it's the incorrect answer. Good fun.

I recommend this game for puzzle/crossword/anagram/IQ type of game loving people like me, and even people who just like a challenge or to challenge others while having a good time.

Takes some getting used to, but fun

Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2013

Platform: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

I find that the controls are kind of strange. You have to like lean the remote side to side to navigate, which is not very intuitive for me. It is taking me a we'll to get used to that, which decreases my ability to play some games. The first few games are ok, but more games that are more fun become available as you play more.

Touchy controls

Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2012

Platform: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

I really wanted to like this game, but I won't be spending much time with it. Maybe if I had a Nintendo ds to control it with it would be OK, but with the Wii it is impossible to play some of the games, such as Pasta Letters, up to speed. I might try it with my 9-year-old, because words at her level might be short enough to be doable. I also have a niggling thought that some of the iPod apps might be just as good for vocabulary development, and be more accessible.

It seems like a great game

Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2015

Platform: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

I got this for my mom who had a stroke, in an effort to help her with spelling. It seems like a great game, but it was a little too confusing and stressful for her. Maybe it will make more sense a few months later.
