ABSTRACT:
A multi-level edifice for playing a three-dimensional word game whose object is to gain the highest score in forming words having a fixed number of letters with the highest point value. The edifice is constituted by a set of transparent platforms equal in number to the fixed number and supported one above the other by corner posts. Each platform is provided with a uniform array of playing sites equal in number to the square of the fixed number, some sites being "free," the others being adapted to accept playing chips bearing different letters associated with numerals representing different point values. Words are formed in a straight line on any platform level or levels on the playing edifice.
