Buzzword

  • Description

    Buzzword -- The Fastest Word Game Ever!

    Players roll out their letter dice, then take turns making words from the upturned letters. The first player places the first word on a "start square" on the 13x13 board. All subsequent words must use a letter from a word already on the board, or must extend or alter a word already on the board.

    Players have one minute to complete each move. If time runs out before all the player's letters are in place, the turn is lost.

    Play continues until neither player can place any more dice, or until one player has used all of their dice. That is the end of one round -- three rounds constitute a game.

    Before each round, players take turns selecting a "buzzword," which is any four-letter word. If during play, a player is able to make the buzzword, they get a 25-point bonus.
