Wordariffic (2015)

About this game

Wordariffic is the party word game in which you use letter cards to make a word that best relates to a randomly chosen theme. Each player gets 11 letter cards and tries to make a word that best relates to a random theme; the last player to put down a word loses their chance to play this round and becomes the judge. The player(s) with the longest word gets 1 point. The player with the best word (as judged by the judge) gets 3 points. The game ends when the 32 point chips have all been handed out. Wordariffic is a completely new standalone game influenced by party games such as Apples to Apples or Cards Against Humanity and word creation games like Scrabble or Bananagrams.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.2/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 6 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
