Yobi's Basic Spelling Tricks

Released in 1993 by Bright Star Technology. Also known as “Spelling Jungle.” I was so addicted to this game, and eventually so frustrated by it. It was essentially a fancy Sokoban-style puzzle, like Chip's Challenge, but with the special requirement that you had to pick up the letters of a word in order. It really did teach me how to spell several words, but the bulk of the challenge was in the navigation puzzle - and that's what eventually stumped me. For a seven-year-old, there was an astounding amount of content in this game.
