01
Overview
Learning Fun II bundles Crosswords, Word Rockets, and Word Hunt, all carried over from the earlier Word Fun cartridge with enhanced graphics. It adds Memory Fun, a letter-matching concentration game with selectable difficulty levels. Each mini-game supports one or two players using standard Intellivision controllers.
02
Why it matters
The cartridge is a late-1980s example of Intellivision edutainment software repackaging Mattel-era titles for the INTV Corporation catalog. It also carries a known Crosswords quirk in which the word bank selects only words beginning with A through T.
03
The physical edition
A complete North American copy typically includes the cartridge, accordion-fold manual, box, and cartridge overlay. Packaging details can vary by region and print, so verify the exact edition and included items before purchase.

Playing it today
The game runs on any Intellivision console with two standard hand controllers. It does not require the Intellivoice accessory or any other peripheral.
