Game Challenge of the Week

How fast are your fingers? Test your reading skills---and your coordination--by trying to keep up with Silent Conversation. First do the Tutorial and touch as many words as you can to get a score and unlock trickier pieces of famous texts. It's harder than it looks! As you go along, beware of the "powerful" words which will fly up and catch you unawares (and result in a lower score).
