Plapperboards
A word game on letters, you must conquer eight letters to win. You play in two teams and place the letters in alphabetical order in the middle of the board. One team draws a card and reads out the current category, the other team starts the timer. The active team searches for a word to fit the category and moves any letter used in the word one step towards the team’s side on the board. If the letter is moved off the board you have conquered it. If you can find a correct word with three identical letters you have conquered the letter in one turn. Conquered letters can be used in words, but are not moved anymore. The opposing team can doubt, either the selected word for not suiting the category, or the spelling of the selected word.
