Touching a Gruzzle will result in having to start the level over. However, if the player matches a word with the wrong picture, a 'Gruzzle' appears and the player must press the Space bar to order Benny the Bookworm to pour slime on it to make it go away permanently. Once all 7 words are matched, Benny Bookworm magically turns the player's collected words into a key, which is used to open the door in the level which takes the player to the next level. In addition, the player must avoid dangers such as Gruzzles, waterfalls, dripping slime, fire, and bottomless pits. He/she tries to match words with their corresponding pictures, located randomly in the level. The player moves around the screen in a platform shooter style environment. Playing as a boy or girl, the player must help Benny Bookworm take back all the stolen words and match them with their meanings so he may put them back in the books.

Because the Gruzzles cannot read, they steal words out of books, preventing others from reading as well. The story centers on creatures called 'The Gruzzles' who can't read. The game is followed by Word Rescue Plus.
