What is Sheep Rescue?
In Sheep Rescue, letters fall from the sky and your child shoots the ones they need into the answer boxes. Any letter can be shot, right or wrong. When the last box fills the word is checked automatically: a right word makes the monster cry and step toward the cliff, a wrong one makes it laugh and step closer to the sheep, and the correct spelling and a tip are shown.
A round is a ladder: beat the little monsters to reach the boss, then the final boss. In the Daily Challenge the game runs on a five-minute clock of active play, which makes a fast, accurate speller stand out. A separate Monster Slayers ranking shows how far each player got.
How to play
- Listen to the word, then aim and shoot falling letters into the boxes.
- Tap a placed letter (or press Clear) to take letters back.
- The word checks itself when the last box is filled.
- Right words push the monster toward the cliff; keep going up the ladder.
What it practises
- Spelling with a little speed
- Choosing the right letter among falling decoys
- Keeping accuracy up when the pace rises
Who it suits
Years 2 to 6, and children who enjoy action games.
Every game uses the same word bank for your child's year: see the spelling word lists.
