this game is good for kids who need help with:

Planning

Developing a systematic approach for setting and achieving goals.

Enemies get harder as with each new level. Three letter words can eliminate enemies in the first couple of levels. Therefore, it's important that players plan ahead, using easier words to get rid of weaker enemies, saving the higher scoring letters and longer words for stronger enemies, as words cannot be repeated. Players should remember where the stronger words are on located once found, saving them for later levels. It's important that players also save their special powers, too, as they are unnecessary early in the game -- especially ones like re scrambling the board. Players have to try their best, wracking their brains to utilize the board for all the word combinations it can possibly offer. Simply put, it's critical that players are always aware of the inevitable increase in difficultly, and save their "last resort" words and special powers until absolutely necessary -- ensuring they aren't left vulnerable while special powers replenish.

Flexibility

Adapting and adjusting to changing conditions and expectations.

Starting with level four, players encounter more of a variety of enemies, some stronger than others. Now players cannot simply focus their attention on making words, they must look at the game screen to see the type of invader that is coming, and adjust the size and score of their word accordingly. Quick adjustments like these will result in extended play and higher scores. Players should also adapt their style of play to the nature of their character's strength, powers, and items they have chosen. Writer Rumble is a game of fast adjustments, quick strategy, and strong vocabulary. Combining these three skills while demonstrating flexible thinking is the key to earning a high score.
