Players compete to build words across or down the board to earn points. Like Scrabble with a few interesting twists, some folks love to play it without even keeping score. It makes a great Friday night game for the family, a fun indoor activity for a rainy or snowy afternoon, or an occasional break from worksheets and online instruction for school spelling and vocab lessons. This modernized version of the classic old-school 80’s variety of Upwords is fun and challenging for all ages to play.
