When my struggling student started to use this app he said, "This is fun!" He then showed the others how to use it. It's one of the best spelling apps I've seen and used in the classroom. I really like how it gives hints when there are so many different spellings for the same sound in the English language. The children love it, and I use it as a tool during whole class instruction as well as support with my students individually.
Shows All the Spelling Combinations for a Given Sound

The words chosen for the sample lists seemed haphazard until I looked at the full version. In the full version, they are organized by spelling pattern, which makes more sense. My 6 year old enjoys this game. He is homeschooled and we just started working on spelling, after getting him reading well enough to read chapter books. He likes being able to use the hint button, which shows him all the different ways to spell a certain sound. When he gets a word right without any mistakes or using a hint, it is added to his "mastered words" list. Each day, I have him practice the "missed words" from his list, so he spends his time working on words he needs help with, instead of having to redo the easy ones over and over. I just bought the full version and can't wait for him to use it.
Excellent for understanding phoneme/spelling connection

This high-quality interface with clear understandable voice gives students a choice of phonemes to insert into spelling words. I'm Orton-Gillingham trained and this is a must for all reading teachers.
Great game!

3GS should work
Please add an option to create your own lists. This would be helpful to use with school homework. Overall, a great app to help children understand some basic spelling rules.
Solid but changes needed

Could use a practice and learn section like build a word express in addition to what feels mostly like a test.
