Spell with Pip: An Oxford Spelling Game

What it is/what you do with it: an arcade-style game for spelling practice.

18 levels (with increasing difficulty), over 3000 words.

What we liked: the concept. Great range of words to practice (the choice of words is based on the research from the team behind the Oxford Dictionaries for children). Ease of use. Multiple user accounts. The Dictionary feature with pronunciation and definitions. No distracting elements.

What we didn't like: we wish there was more variety in the game (can quickly get repetitive). Only random word play mode - no option to choose specific words or create user-defined word lists for practice. We wish there was an easy 'unlimited time/unlimited errors' mode.
