Abstract: A board game for enhancing spelling and word-forming skills that can be played by multiple players and enjoyed by people of all ages. The game comprises a playing board and a set of cards that have a set of characters, such as letters, on one side. To play, one or more cards are selected and each player attempts to form as many words containing the displayed letters as he or she can in the allotted time. Points are awarded based at least in part on the number of words formed. The game is won when a player earns enough points to move his or her playing piece from the START position to the FINISH position.
