This exiting card game plays like go fish and gin rummy using letter cards to spell words. Kids and adults snatch letter cards back and forth until someone gets rid of all their cards first spelling words. It's a race of wits that makes spelling a fun game for everyone. Just before you spell a word, someone says "give me all your 'E' cards." They mess up your word and you have to start all over again! Challenging other players words is fun too because if they miss spelled it, they have to pick it back up after exposing all their letter cards and the player that challenged the word, gets first shot at the exposed letters. FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN!! Try it!

Four of us stayed up till 3am playing this game last night! We play it at least twice a week since we baught it in 2003.

People spell the funniest words in this game, it's "give me all your oooo's" or "I challenge the word BOOTEE" I challenged it! But it's a word! You have to remember who snatched what letters from who! It's like "GO-FISH" but with letter cards and you spell words with the letters you snatch from opponents.

My daughter is "8", she beat us twice, her words only have to be "3" letters long to lay them down, while adults need at least "4" letter words to play them! She loved it, she saw a lot of our words, it was wonderful.

If someone challenges your word you lay down, you have to pick it back up and return it to your hand, it's like a penalty, then everyone knows what you have and they attack your cards.

It's the first time I ever played a card game or word that made our family laugh and have so much fun! We love our scrabble, but have not played it sence! GREAT GAME, EVERY PARENT SHOULD PLAY THIS GAME WITH THIER CHILDREN, it's an educational and entertaining bond for you and your child!

This is my first time to ever review a product, it's not my thing to pass judgement, but this game is speacial for all ages!

We played this the first time at my sister's who lives out of town and wanted to have one of our own to play here. It was a lot of fun. Couldn't find it at any store or mall. Amazon came through for us again!

I have played this with two people and we both found it somewhat boring. It might be fun with a larger group. However, the reason we are unlikely to play it again is that the cards have a texture that makes them stick together which makes it hard to handle them.
