I want to make a simple word game that is similar to a hidden object game. Usually with a hidden object game the words of the items to be found are all displayed. I want only one word at a time to display and the person has to find that one object. When found, the word changes randomly to another word. So to my question:
Is there a tutorial out there for a word/picture matching game? I've tried memory matching tutorials but it is not the same concept.
Thanks.

so you need an array that holds all the item`s names
item[0]='box';
item[1]='cat';
etc.

then you need the player input
check all string_ functions in the manual

and thelogic is

if (player text==item[selekted_item]) {item[selekted]=''; if (revealed items<max items)
{while (item[selekted]=='') {selekted=irandom(total items)}} else {win game}}

edit: this is all an approach/idea, you will have to figure it out.
