Word Rescue is an educational platform game written by Karen Crowther (Chun) of Redwood Games and released by Apogee Software in March 1992.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Like many Apogee games of the time, Word Rescue includes three episodes, with only the first episode playable in the shareware version. Visit Gruzzleville and the Castle Explore GruzzleBad Caverns See the Spooky Haunted HouseApogee still sells the registered version of this game.The game is followed by Word Rescue Plus and Math Rescue.The story centers on creatures called "The Gruzzles". Because the Gruzzles cannot read, they steal words out of books, preventing others from reading as well. Playing as a boy or girl, the player must help Benny Bookworm take back all the stolen words and match them with their meanings so that he may put them back into the books.

Construction Zone Calamity: The thirteenth level of episode one is titled "Construction Zone" and has you running around looking for words on the support structure of a half-finished building. The level is bordered by brick walls on each side and third wall that has barely been started takes up part of the background on the first floor.

Big Boo's Haunt: The haunted house levels. Oddly, the ghosts themselves are just animated background graphics rather than enemies or hazards.
