ABSTRACT:
A game apparatus for playing a competitive word game includes a two-sided game board, a plurality of pegs, a stand, and a spinner. The stand includes means for holding the game board vertically and means for holding a supply of pegs. The game board has a plurality of openings completely through the board through which the pegs may be inserted endwise. Some of the pegs bear a letter on each of their opposite end surfaces with the letter on each end surface being different on the opposite end surface. In addition to the differing letter, each end surface has a characteristic which visibly distinguishes the end surface from its opposite end surface. The end surfaces of the pegs placed in the game board are visible to players viewing either of the sides of the game board. The spinner provides means by which a player determines, by chance, a course of action to take during his turn.
