Overview

This game is really simple to play, even for players who don’t love word games at all. It's super easy to compose a word related to the theme: you can use all the letters you want, not only the ones in your hand, and creativity and puns are welcome! No frustration in sight! Of course, you must try to find a word that grants you a higher score than your opponents’! At the start of the game the Theme is revealed and you receive 8 Letter Cards: 1 - Choose the Letter you like and pass the others to the player at your left 2 - Repeat point 1 until there are no more cards to pass. Receive from the right, pick one, pass to the left. Easy, right? 3 - Compose a word related to the Theme, using as many of your Letters as you can! The player who finds the word with the highest value wins the current round and scores 1 point. When a player scores the third point, the game ends and that player wins the game. If 2 or more player find a word with the same value, they all score 1 point. If 2 or more players reach the third point in the same round, they share the victory (this happens rarely).
