A Trivia Game for Word Lovers: Card Game

About the Book

Prove that you’re the ultimate language buff in this delightful trivia-based card game for word lovers, featuring a booklet with instructions and alternate ways to play.

If you cow someone, will they cower? Do you know what a milliner sells? Name a homonym for the word row that is a bit fishy.

“If you know the answer—or even if you don’t—you’ll get a kick out of this game.”—Ron Charles, The Washington Post

Each of the 175 cards contains a single trivia question related to word spelling, origins, and meanings, as well as testing your knowledge of synonyms, homonyms, and other language minutia. Answer the question correctly and you get to keep the card—each of which has a letter on it. When one player gains enough trivia cards, it triggers the all-out spell-a-thon, where each player competes to create the best words with the cards they’ve collected—earning more points for longer words or using up all their cards. Play a game for two or invite up to six players to join in the fun.

Whether you trounce the competition by collecting the most cards or have a come-from-behind victory with your impressive spelling skills, this game is the perfect choice for word and language lovers everywhere.
