Jingo v1.0 (Freeware)
Requirements: PocketPC 2002, 2003(SE), WM5, WM6 - Visual Basic
Overview: Jack's Jingo is a word game in English: you must guess a 5 letter word in less than 5 tries, while the program shows you the correct letters as you go along (on a red background when they are in the right spot, on yellow otherwise).
How to Play:
The program loads the list of five letter words into memory. That's why it takes it a little bit of time
to start. The file called "list.txt" and it contains the five letter words. It must be located in the
\program files\Jingo directory (default installation). You can add/delete words using any text editor.
The words must be five letters long.
The program will show you the first letter. You must guess the next four letters. NOTE: you must enter
the letter in ALL CAPS. After you enter the fifth character, it will let you know which letters are
correct or close. If the letter is RED, then the letter is a correct letter and is in the correct place.
If the letter is yellow, then the letter is correct but it is in the wrong place.
For example, if the word to be guessed is CLAWS and you guessed CALMS then the letters A and L will be
yellow and S will be red. The letter M is not correct at all. It will not be colored and will be erased
on the next line.
Finally, if the game does not advance you to the next line after a guess, use the check word button to
force it to check your guess.
