About the Game

In this groovy tug-of-words game, players push and pull 1970s laundry items (letter cards) on clotheslines to form words and score points. Spell words on the line to earn instant points (Pegs), then organize laundry in your Laundry Basket for game-end bonuses. To win, score the most points by the time the game ends.

- Manage a Hand of Laundry (letter) cards - Each card is worth 1-4 Pegs (points), and has 1 of 6 funky patterns. Decide exactly when to hang each item, and when to collect it. Watch out for neighbors (and windy weather), which may snatch up desirable cards before you can.

- Use Action Points to hang, push, pull, remove, and collect cards.

- Spell Words by arranging letters on the Clothesline.

- Collect Funky Patterns in your Laundry Basket to score game-end bonuses. Collect 4 of the same patterns or 4 different patterns in each column to maximize your points.

Race to fill your Laundry Basket and trigger the end of the game. Then add together your in-game points and game-end bonuses. The player with the most points wins.
