Within all three versions of the game, after each round is completed, players earn their "Brain Electricity Ranking," based on how quickly they correctly questions in that round. Depending on how well you play, you generate brain activity, which will power up objects ranging from an LED flashlight to a sports arena to a massive space station. Players are rewarded for exceptional performances by unlocking special Word Power Awards, which commend a game well played. When connected to the Word Power Network, players are able to share their Word Power Awards with those playing online or from the PC version of the game. Players can also track their high score and monitor their progress from the network’s leaderboard.
