Journalist

 

You are a journalist and need to hand in your copy by placing words on the city map to connect editorial office and hotel. You choose a size of board to use, draw seven face-down letters and play in rounds: You start the timer, turn up your letters and all simultaneously form words from their letters and place them on their own board, while the timer runs. You place words orthogonally, starting at the hotel spot; following the placement and word validity rules from scrabble. You can agree on your own rules for valid words. Special spots earn you bonuses, penalties or a letter cube. When the timer has run out, you score one point for each letter that you placed, add bonuses and deduct penalties, score 5 points when you used all letters, and 10 points when you end the game by connecting hotel and editorial office.
