Kross the Wordz

2–5 players · 25 min · 10+

Crossword puzzles with a difference: Kross the Wordz allows each player to choose one letter in turn, which everyone must then use. Quite tricky, if the sideline wants a Y, which now does not fit in their own word plans. Although one can also expose a disagreeable letter, but that gives negative points, and - of course - the longer the word, the more points there are.

Here's how it works: A player calls any letter. All players enter it on their block sheet. Everyone has a task card that they have to work on. The goal is to form as long and meaningful words as possible in order to fulfill the task. Whoever succeeds best, gets many points. If you do not want to enter a letter, take a penalty card from the middle. Who has the most points in the end, wins.
