Word game. Separate the vowels from the consonants. Up to four players draw 3 Vowels and 7 consonants. After everyone has their starting 10 tiles, the remaining tiles are mixed together and left face-down as a draw pile. Words are formed vertically or horizontally but two words going in the same direction cannot be formed if it does not leave a space between the letters of both words. The box illustrates this rather well. If you cannot make a legal play, you draw one tile. If you can now play a word, you do so. If not, draw another tile, and so on. If you cannot make a play after drawing three tiles, your turn ends. The winner is the first player to get rid of all his tiles.

In addition, on the board there are some coloured squares. Should your word cross such a square, you must do the following:

Yellow field: Randomly pick a tile from the right neighbour. Red box: Give the left neighbour a random tile. Blue field: Take three tiles from the existing stock. Green field: You must swap one of your tiles with another player. Both players choose a tile for the swap and the tiles are swapped face-down.
