HOW TO PLAY THE GAME


OBJECTIVE:
1. To list, within 3 minutes, as many words of the highest point value as you can find among the
random assortment of letters in the cube grid.

PREPARATION:
1. The game begins by shaking a covered tray of sixteen cubic dice, each with a different letter
printed on each of its sides.
2. The dice settle into a 4x4 tray so that only the top letter of each cube is visible.
3. After they have settled into the grid, a three-minute timer is started and all players simultaneously
begin the main phase of play.

START OF GAME:
1. Each player searches for words that can be constructed from the letters of sequentially
adjacent cubes, where "adjacent" cubes are those horizontally, vertically, and diagonally
neighboring.
2. Words must be at least three letters long, may include singular and plural (or other
derived forms) separately, but may not use the same letter cube more than once per word.
3. Each player records all the words he or she finds by writing on a private sheet of paper.
4. After three minutes have elapsed, all players must immediately stop writing and the game
enters the scoring phase.
SCORING:

1. In the scoring phase, each player reads off his or her list of discovered words.
2. If two or more players wrote the same word, it is removed from all players' lists.
3. Any player may challenge the validity of a word, in which case a previously nominated dictionary
is used to verify or refute it.
4. For all words remaining after duplicates have been eliminated, points are awarded based on the
length of the word.
Example:
3 letter word - 1 pt
4 letter word - 2 pts
