Games are fun, but learning isn’t always fun.
That is why we recommend doing both at the same time.
Word Search Go brings this popular paper game to the Mac with a beautiful classical music soundtrack.
The game also rewards you with coins after every 10 levels.
With enough coins, you might pay for power-ups if you are stuck.
you could also buy coins if you are impatient and remove ads from the game.
However, while playing this game on a Mac, we noticed no obvious ads.

Pictosaurus
Pictosaurus is for those that want to build a knack for identifying items and improving their vocabulary.
This game might look similar to the famous 4 Pics 1 Word, but it is quite different.
You win the level if it’s possible for you to identify the item from the available clues.
Three power-ups can help you in the game.
You sometimes get free power-ups, but the easiest way to get them is to buy them with coins.
If you run out of coins, you might spend some money replenishing your purse.
But don’t be fooled by appearances; Pictosaurus is very challenging and will test your item-guessing skills.
