About

Prefix Game 1.0 is an educational HyperCard stack by Ken Dunham (kdunham@ednet1.osl.or.gov), submitted to Info-Mac in July 1994. The stack lets students learn common English prefixes through play, and also lets teachers and students extend the game by authoring their own prefix sets directly inside HyperCard.Educational useThe game is aimed at classroom and self-study use: players work through prefix exercises in a game format, reinforcing meaning and recognition. Because content lives in HyperCard fields, instructors can tailor the deck to a particular vocabulary list or grade level without programming.Author-built contentIn addition to the bundled prefixes, users may create their own prefix sets within the stack, turning the game into a reusable template for any vocabulary topic that fits the prefix-and-meaning pattern.DistributionDunham explicitly grants permission for the binary to be included in CD-ROM packages, making the stack a candidate for educational shareware compilations of the era.RequirementsRequires HyperCard (or HyperCard Player) on a Classic Mac OS system. The file ships as a BinHex (.hqx) archive and must be decoded with BinHex 4.0 before opening the stack in HyperCard.
