Free Rice was a very easy game yet very educational. It consisted of a lottery of words that each had four similar answers but one of those answers is the synonym of the original word. Now in order to move on to the next word, the player has to match that original word with its synonym. The objective of this game was to win as many grains of rice in order to feed those fighting hunger. World Food Programme has partnered up with John Breen, the author of this game, in order to help feed those worldwide. The more words you answer correctly the more challenging the words become as the player advances to the next level. This innovative game not only helps players expand their vocabulary but also helps them have a better grasp of what those words mean. However, In my opinion as the words got challenging, it would of been a great idea to have some hint or tip to have an idea of what the word could mean. Overall, I enjoyed playing Free Rice because it not only had great intentions in feeding those fighting hunger but also helped challenge my knowledge and understanding of new vocabulary.
