ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method for playing a spelling game, wherein a player enters a telephone number to obtain access to a specially programmed audiotex voice communication device which enables the user to interact with the device by attempting to spell a sequence of words which are automatically pronounced for the player. Spelling is accomplished by player responses which are stored and reviewed by the audiotex device which determines whether the player has met predetermined criteria to be a game winner. Such criteria is preferably a combination of correct words spelled in less than a predetermined time period.
