Abstract

Apparatus for playing a word-building game comprises one or more sets of lettered playing pieces, and an equal number of boards each formed or marked with a grid of spaces to receive the playing pieces, and with a pool for exhibiting pieces awaiting play. The board(s) may be moulded from plastics material, with the grid and pool consisting of recesses for the location of the playing pieces therein, and further recesses may be provided adjacent the grid for the reception of scoring blocks. Alternatively, scores may be indicated by numbered slides mounted in the board(s) and registering with apertures in the board(s), or by rotatable numbered cylinders mounted beneath apertures in the board(s), or by means of numbered blocks mounted on spigots adjacent the grid(s). The board(s) and playing pieces may be formed from magnetic materials which cooperate to locate the pieces on the board(s), or the board(s) may comprise inscribed pasteboard.
