History of Word Games

Lewis Carroll is known for many things – most notably for Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.
But did you know he also invented the very first word game in history due to his love for clever word plays and mathematics?
In 1877, Lewis Carroll created something that is now known as word-ladder, known initially as work-links. Australians might know this type of word game as Step Word. The very first word puzzle was introduced in March 1879 through Vanity Fair. Yes, that very same magazine that still exists today.
While the concept was seen as simple, the difficulty of the game created a quickly wide spreading phenomenon of word games. The world loved it, and from that point on, many other word games started to appear along with Carroll’s creation.
History of the Word Unscramblers
Nowadays, cheats for games are as prevalent as the games are. No matter what game is created, cheats would immediately follow shortly. People just simply loved to win.
But it hasn’t always been this way.
When Lewis Carroll first created his word puzzle, no one was able to share tips for doing word puzzles in the way that we do now. But as word games grew into more varieties and it started to take on a similar appearance to today’s crossword puzzles, trivia and hints were included in the puzzles to make them easier for those that weren’t as interested in wordplays.
This lack of interest in being good at words means that it took a long time before people started questioning what it means to be good at word puzzles.
The first book dedicated in solving word puzzles was published in 1978. It took a whole century before we started created resources to help people with their word games!
Amazing, isn’t it? There was a time when no one shared tips or shortcuts on how to solve these word puzzles. Nowadays, tools like our word unscrambler can do what these books could do within seconds.
Could you imagine trying to create or write these word puzzles without any assistance? I certainly couldn’t!
Does Word Games Really Make You Smarter?
Did you remember when you were still in primary school and every other homework that you received came with a word search or a word puzzle? The truth is whether those word puzzles actually help make you smarter in school is a hotly debated topic.
Surprisingly enough, as much as you might have enjoyed those puzzles, did you know that some parents believe that word puzzles don’t actually help their children in becoming smarter?
While word puzzles have shown to be an excellent tool for introducing preliminary terms, it doesn’t actually make you smarter. But it does improve your deciphering and decoding skills — this extends to finding patterns among words and increasing your fluency with the language. So it could give a false pretense that you are improving your cognitive abilities.
So when should a teacher really use word puzzles in their homework?
Beyond the initial stage of learning the language and training young children in being attentive to their homework, word games might be better as a fun activity rather than a tool of education.
