Word Whiz is a trivia game written for MS-DOS, published by Apogee Software (now 3D Realms). It consists of various questions about different English words.
Word Whiz was distributed as shareware. It consists of four volumes (named Volume 1 to 4), with only the first volume distributed as shareware, and the rest available commercially. Each volume has 100 multiple choice questions, each one about a specific word.
Word Whiz is written in Turbo Pascal 5.0 and the source code was for sale for $100.
The game was discontinued, and it was later re-released as freeware by Apogee in December 2005. See also list of commercial games released as freeware.
