Sometimes getting the right answer isn’t enough – you also need to understand order. What comes first? Which letter belongs where? Which step in the chain is next? That’s exactly what the new game type Put in Order trains.
What is Put in Order?
Each question shows a number of pieces in a randomized sequence. The player drags and drops them into the correct order. It could be words in a sentence, letters in a word, numbers in a sequence – anything that has a definite order. Once all pieces are in the right place, the question is complete and the player earns knowledge points.
If a player gets stuck, the Give up button reveals the correct order so they can try again.
