Here is the flow: a) Select 3 letters; b) A random phrase containing these letters is selected; c) See some pictures describing the phrase, and try guessing what it is; d) You can either try guessing letters, or gamble on more by guessing the entire phrase/; e) If you see you can’t get it – buy a hint. A hint is a sentence containing the phrase; and f) •If you misspell the phrase – you will be forgiven and get your points.
