Serious Game Classification

Lily has made an amazing discovery: a 'spelling intelligence' serum. Unfortunately, the evil Dr. Al Literate wants to steal the serum so he can win the national spelling bee. Never mind that that is only for kids. To stop him, Lily has challenged him to a spelling duel, w-i-n-n-e-r take all

Letter Lab is a spelling puzzle game. You are shown a board with nine letters. By clicking letters in order, you must spell words of at least three letters or more long. You can use letters anywhere on the board, whether they touch or not. You do, however, need to use the center letter in each word you create and use each letter only once. Each word you create fills your test tube. The more letters in a word, the more it fills the test tube.

In Relax mode, you just make words and fill the test tube at your own pace. There is a hint button, if you get stuck, but if you use it, you will have the word 'cheater' stamped on the score at the end. In Arcade mode, you must fill your test tube before Dr. Al Literate fills his. There is no hint button. If Dr. Al Literate fills his test tube first, you lose that round and must retry.
