Garfield, Eat Your Words

About

Garfield, Eat Your Words is a 1985 trivia game from Random House for the Apple II. You challenge Garfield to guess hidden words by selecting letters one at a time. Each correct guess helps push him toward a diet goal. The simple text-based format puts your vocabulary to the test with a goofy cat at stake. Though it's a dated relic of early edutainment, the game’s charm comes from its cartoonish title character. With a 2.5/5 rating on MobyGames, it’s mostly remembered for blending classic 80s computer aesthetics with a familiar face. The single-player mode holds up as a quick word puzzle battle.
