Kind of like Scrabble with cards. Be the first player to to make a word using ALL of the cards in your hand. The dealer decides how many this is, from 3 to 8, and can change from one hand to the next. The more cards that you deal, the more challenging the play. If, for example, the dealer deals 5 cards, then only words with 5 letters can be made. Each letter in that word is then worth a certain number of points, giving you a score for that hand. The first player to reach a pre-determined score wins. - BoardGameGeek
