  • Word game involving the use of mosaic score and strategy boards
    Patent number: 4607848
    Abstract: A word game played for amusement involving the guessing of concealed words through definitional and phonetic clues. The outcome of a roll of die or other randomness means determines the set of definitional clues and single phonetic clues the player is to use. When the words are properly guessed, the player covers a score board space corresponding to the random number. As play progresses, the score board spaces become full and influence strategy. The first player to fill their score board wins.
