What is the best programming language to build a simple game where you have to place things into sequential order?

I am trying to build a simple game where the player has to arrange the words of a bible verse in sequential order. I am then going to try and insert the game into a wordpress.org site. Any advice on how to do this would also be greatly appreciated

One way of doing it would be to use javascript/jquery to make the game and php to turn it into a wordpress plugin.

But you could build the game itself in one of many languages, so a better answer would be to pick a language you'd like to learn and build it with that.

Hope this helps! :)

Agreed that you would have to build this with PHP and JS and then import into a WordPress plugin. We have a lot of JS, PHP and a WordPress plugin development course that should help. However, know that this is a large project to start off with if you're still not sure how to build the basic parts, so be prepared to have to learn a bit before you can figure out how to code your project from scratch.

Thanks guys! yeah I ended up just making the game with jQuery and using some of jqueryui.com's droppable library. Now I'm going to start the process of trying to build it into a plugin... Thanks for your help!
