4/5 Very Good
A fun game even if you are not a great speller. It's quick so you can play a couple of rounds at any time and the rules are simple enough to grasp in just a couple minutes. I would like a few more hint cards for variety. We also made a house rule against using the "rhyme" card as it was both over powered and utterly random.

5/5 Excellent
An excellent game for two people who enjoy trying to be sneaky with word choices. It's not based on how difficult a word you build, though I did lose a few rounds to my mother who played 'cartoony' and 'creole'. I like the fact that the clue cards change per round, though the 'Rhymes with' clue card was overpowered. A house rule was made to not use that one. It's a great little game that can take as long as you want - keep playing rounds - or short with the usual 3 - 5 rounds per game.
