Toss Words

1–8 players · 0 min

Components: 14 letter dice and a thick cardboard dice shaker.

"One, two, three, four, or more persons may participate in this game, singly or as partners. As you play you will find that this game provokes deep thought, and with each roll of the cubes your interest will mount."

Players take turns rolling the letter dice and forming words from the resulting letters. Words must have a minimum of 3 letters. Score one point for each letter used in forming words. Bonus: Use of all 14 letters counts 25, not 14. Bonus: The word "GAME" counts 50 points. There seem to be no penalties for unused letters.

Play to 100 or 200 points as agreed upon by the players. Doesn't say, however, how much time a player has per turn. Also, it seems that words are formed separately, not in crossword fashion.

Toss Words is a word dice game.
