In brief

Players form words on their gameboard, extending and rearranging existing words whenever possible using the available letter tiles. If a player overlooks an anagram they could have made on their turn, their opponent can call them out and steal the word.

The game ends when one player has formed a word on each of the 8 available lines.

The game can be played head to head or in teams.
