ABSTRACT:
This invention discloses a dice word game set of twenty-four identical six-sided dice. Each side of each die is marked with a unique letter of a six-letter target word, so that the die contains all letters in the target word, which in the preferred embodiment is the word "HEARTS". Each player is given six dice, one for each letter in the target word. The player rolls one die, attempting to roll the first letter in the target word. If the roll is successful, the die is added to a completion set, which partially spells the target word, and the player attempts to roll the next letter in the target word. When a player has completed spelling the target word, he wins the game. Because the dice are identical, the game set is inexpensive to produce. Because the target word is given and known, the game is easy to play, requires a minimum of mental exercise, and is relaxing. Because the dice are rolled one at a time, the odds of winning are sufficiently great to make the game interesting to play.
