Word Rescue is an early reader education game using a platform action mechanic. In the game, the illiterate Gruzzles are trying to steal words from books to prevent everyone else from learning to read. You must match words to pictures in order to get the words back, while avoiding the Gruzzles or covering them with slime.
The game uses bright colorful graphics and a nice jazzy soundtrack. The puzzle element of the is simple for young children, and while it has a difficulty meter, only the action element gets harder, not the complexity of the words.

Music
Word Rescue uses a simple jazzy soundtrack consisting of only three songs that cycle through as you go further in the game. The game credits the music to Voyetra Technologies implying that the songs were demo tunes taken from Sequencer Plus Gold, though this isn't known for sure.

The music files are simply CMF songs with a different extension and located in the main install folder. The same three songs are reused in each of the three episodes. The music was probably converted from SNG to CMF.
