This review is from: Royalty Word-Building Word-Capturing Card Game (Cards)
Royalty is essentially a form of Scrabble but played with cards. I like it because it can be played more casually than Scrabble, but it can also be played in a very competetive manner.
My wife and I play it regularly, for fun, without keeping score. I am ordering a new deck because my wife gave her's to her sister. The quality of the cards is good and the package includes a plastic case and instructions. This game is suitable for ages ten and up. I am 51 and enjoy the game. Play it for fun, as I do, or for keeps. It is easy enough for fun and complex enough for real competetion. A first rate card game.

This review is from: Royalty Word-Building Word-Capturing Card Game (Cards)
My wife and I played Royalty for many years. We have tried many other word games especially an all time favorite Scrabble. Royalty provides a very good alternative to Scrabble. Game play Royalty presents complexities and therefore challenges that Scrabble does not have.
In Royalty a player can either play a word from his hand, capture an opponents word by adding cards to form a completely different word, or do both on any one turn. Like Scrabble a player can choose to return cards to the remaining deck. However in Royalty a player must return his entire hand and receive 7 new cards. Royalty is a an excellent test of vocabulary and mental agility. You will thoroughly enjoy this game.

This review is from: Royalty Word-Building Word-Capturing Card Game (Cards)
I have played this game for years and introduced it to many friends. Even grandchildren enjoy it's challenge. It is fun and educational too!!! The down part: the new publishers have changed the rules and drastically changed the game. They made a mistake and hopefully they will repair it somehow so the game will continue to be played as it was originally designed!! I have printed out the original rules and give them to friends who purchase the new game. This is a post script to my original posting. Have just played the new publication of the game and the letter Q is now Qu. This completely takes away the challenge of managing your cards intelligently. What a shame!!!
