Description

A word card game that uses a unique tic-tac-toe mechanism. It has a game board, 54 letter cards, 2 rule cards, 5 blue chips and 5 red chips. To start, deal 6 cards to each player and nine on the 3x3 grid. In a turn, a player either: makes a word using 3 or more cards from the hand and one from the board, placing a chip of his color on the board card used and discarding the hand cards used; or simply discards as many cards as desired. Then he draws back up to 6; if he used all his hand to make a word he draws 1 extra. The first to get 3 chips in a row wins. (It doesn't say anything about chips of both colors on the same card; presumably it's not allowed.)
