About this game

Starting with a small hexagonal grid of letter tiles, players add more tiles onto the grid. Every turn, players have to trace a path from their piece's location to spell out a word, including all of the newly added letters, and keeping their piece on the last letter of that word. Next turn, their word will start with that last letter. Players try to get rid of all their letter tiles in their hand and stack; the first one to do so wins.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.8/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
