There are six Icosahedrons = 20-sided dice, one shows only vowels, one only consonants and the others vowels, consonants and * for joker. You can roll up to three times and must then form a German word with minimum three and maximum five letters. Words of four and five letters may use one or two jokers. For a five-letter word that contains a word of four and three letters within the others, scores a bonus - e.g. Seite - Seit - Sei. You score in relation to the number of letters in a word and the number of jokers used. You win with 100 points or with most points after an agreed number of rounds. A new edition of the rules allows words of six letters, winning score 500 points.
