Lucky for us we recently bought a new/used game at our Goodwill store
so . . . on a rainy day in Florida we discovered we really like this game.
It begins a bit like scrabble.
Then you can stack letters to make new words and/or change existing words.
add BAGEL
WORD becomes LORD
BAGEL becomes MOGEL (whoops misspelled)
SHIP becomes SNIT
add NUT
MUFF becomes BUFF
add FIT
ZAP becomes NAP
add CHIN
BUFF returns to MUFF
JUDO becomes VROOM
creates OM (a mantra sound)
add LEVER
By now you get the idea
No stack can be higher than 5 letters.
If you come across this game - buy it - I promise you will enjoy it.
I love, love word games. This is right up my alley.
ReplyDeleteI am thankful that you shared the way one plays this game. It is my Mother-in-law's favorite game. Her and her friends enjoy playing it, and since I like Scrabble, I know I would like this too. Another fun find at Goodwill.
ReplyDeleteI used to play scrabble, always liked it. Richard is not much of a game player. Kind of hard to play by yourself. Looks like a nice game and you gotta love a thrift store.

This does look like fun!
ReplyDeleteMy MIL loves scrabble, so I bet she would like this too!
