Description

In this two-player game of choices, changes and chance, you build a bridge of words - connected by their shared letters - from your side of the board to the opponent's side. At the same time, you must protect your own side of the board, using your letters and words to block your opponent from the same goal. Quick to learn, but always a new challenge! This game tests your creativity, strategy & vocabulary - without needing a literature degree!

Players begin with the row closest to them filled with random letter tiles, and take a new letter tile at the beginning of each turn (except the first). On their turn, players roll 2 die and add the results to see how many Movement Points they get for that turn. They can use those Movement Points to move their letter tiles around the board, constructing words, building new words off them, and both stealing and blocking the opponents letter tiles.

Notes

  • This game contains a premium upgrade called UV Coating that makes the printed components more durable.
  • This game contains laser cut components. Laser cut items will have a slight amount of soot around the edges, which can easily be wiped off; and will have a campfire smell for about a week after you open them.
