X-SHOOTER

English vocabulary game for kids, homeschool and ESL
Read the word. Hit the matching picture. Learn 500+ English words.
X-Shooter is a word game that plays like a target range. A word appears. Pictures fall. You hit the one that matches before it lands. Miss, and a ping shows you where the right picture was — so the miss still teaches.
Tap play. Read the word. Hit the matching picture. Three short rounds — about 30 seconds. This is the real game, just smaller.

Not flashcards with a new skin. Three things I built in on purpose.
A lot of words have a short clip so the meaning is something you see, not only a line of text.
If you hit the wrong picture, a ping shows where the right one was. The miss still teaches. It is not just a score going down.
A few pictures fall at once. You find the match before it hits the ground. That is the whole trick: eyes, choice, word.
See the gameA short look at play, and how the game was built. Videos load only when you tap play, so the page stays quick.
A word sticks when you see it, hear it, and have to choose it fast — and when kids want one more round.
Each word sits on a clear picture. No long lists to stare at.
The game can read the word out loud in English, so the sound arrives with the picture.
Membership also includes X-Typer. Same words, by typing. Seeing a word and spelling it is how it stays.
The learning is the point. The game part is how kids stay in the chair.
The LearningThe FunSame game. Three kinds of player.
A safe activity kids ask to play again.
