There are also 5 further related activities: Read, Hear and Spell, Match the Words, Match the Backs, Slider Puzzle and Word Search. All these games use the same word lists as the SWAP/FIX games while the Word Searches are run in a stand alone program that allows you to customise the grid size, word properties, word list and appearance. Word Searches can also be printed out as worksheets and there are numerous languages available.
The GAMZ Writer allows you to design your own SWAP/FIX card games. They can be saved and played on the computer or printed out. The appearance of all the GAMZ programs can be fully customised to each individual player with access to a large range of fonts and backgrounds making it suitable to all ages.
