Spelling games benefit from sound because hearing a word and seeing its letters connects two forms of information instead of asking memory to work alone. Another angle makes it more interesting: Open-ended creation is educational in a different way from quizzes because there may be many successful answers and the player has to judge which one serves the goal best. Kids' games often have the toughest design audience: players who will simply leave if the explanation becomes boring.
