Overview

In Wordz, each player must create a word from the letters he has been dealt, then try to guess the words that other players have created.

At the start of each round, a player receives five vowel cards and seven consonants, with both vowels and consonants being color-coded on both sides. Each player secretly creates a word from some number of those letter cards and lays the cards face down in order, returning any excess cards to the box.

On a turn, a player must reveal a letter in his word, and he may choose to guess an opponent's word. To guess, he must hand over a token to that player. (Each player starts the game with three tokens, and if a player runs out of tokens, he cannot guess until someone else gives him one.) If the player is correct, he claims any letters not revealed in that player's word, while the wordmaker claims all revealed letters; if the player gets any letter wrong in his guess, the word remains as is. If a player ever reveals all letters in his word, he claims all of those letter cards.

After all letters cards have been claimed, the round ends and players score one point for each card collected. After a predetermined number of rounds, the player with the most points wins.

is a game in which each must make a word with letters (on cards) and then try to guess the words of other players around table.
