If Words Could Kill

2–5 players · 30 min · 8+

Introducing If Words Could Kill, a fast-paced word-dueling game for 2–5 players where your only weapon is a wickedly well-chosen word. You'll forge your strongest spell to strike your greatest rival, then hope their reply is weaker than your wit. Fail to surpass an attack, and you'll lose a shield; lose them all, and your fate is sealed.

Part strategy, part vocabulary challenge, and entirely competitive, If Words Could Kill rewards quick thinking and creative wordplay.
