ABSTRACT:
A board game has first and second playing areas, with the first playing area being a continuous path along the perimeter of the game board. The second playing area is located within the first playing area and includes spaces for forming words with the spaces having a surface for erasable markings of letters. The first and second playing areas have indicia printed thereon. The first playing area determines which letters to use to form words within the second playing area, and indicates the monetary values for using the indicated letters. The board game also includes a die that controls the movement of player pieces along the continuous path and which directs the players to use a spinner of the board game. Words may be formed within the second playing area and can be spelled forward, backward, vertically, horizontally or diagonally. The spinner provides a further random chance control.
