ABSTRACT:
A word game in which words are made up from three-letter combinations contained as indicia on a medium supply, such as a deck of cards in which the indicia include columns of numbers with interspaced columns of letter combinations. A roll of a die determines according to the numerical value reflected by the die, which numbered letter combination is to be used in forming a word containing the three letters, specifically in the order in which the letters appear in the column but not necessarily consecutively. A second supply of cards is provided. These are challenge cards of two types, one challenging the existence of the word and the other the spelling of the word. These are used by players other than the caster of the die. Various arrangements of points are awarded and/or subtracted according to the roll of the die, challenges that fail or succeed, etc.
