Super Solvers: Spellbound! The Master of Mischief is at it again. This time he has devised a great spelling be in which he will submit robots to win the spelling bee for him!

When you first log in you will be asked to chose a category of words (Holiday, homophones, etc.).You are then brought to a screen with three options, Crisscross, Flash Cards, Word Search. Crisscross is a sort of crossword puzzle, but instead of clues you just need to figure out where the words go. Flash cards are flash cards? You hear or see a word then spell it out. Word finder is a grid filled with letters wherein several words are hidden.

Once you finish the above you can enter a spelling bee where you face the Master of Mischief and/or his robots. Winning opens up new levels of competition such as Regional or international. [source:mobygames]
