All seven games run on this set. Grid Hack suits it particularly well, because rojo, azul and verde are short enough to trace cleanly through the grid.

Questions
Do Spanish colors change their ending?
The ones ending in -o do, for both gender and number: rojo, roja, rojos, rojas. The rest change only for number. The games use the dictionary form; the lesson covers the agreement.
Why does the color come after the noun?
Spanish puts most descriptive adjectives after the thing they describe, so it is coche rojo, not rojo coche.
