Verbatim is one of the games that came with the disk of Issue 71 of Compute!'s Gazette, released in May 1989. A simple word guessing game similar to Lingo in concept, a player needs to guess a word given by either another player or the CPU, and they have 5 tries in total. A highlighted letter means it's not present in the word to guess, whereas a lowercase letter means it is present, but not in the correct position.
nymx however doesn't need 5 guesses and guesses a 6 letter word in only one guess.

PHOTOSENSITIVITY WARNING: There are flashing lights as soon as the word is correctly guessed, which may cause epileptic seizures to those affected.
