The board is a grid of squares, some of them coloured, the coloured squares give either the letter or the word containing the letter on the square additional value. Players have letters on their rack and in their turn form words using words already on the board and letters from their rack, as in a crossword the placed letters must form correct words in any direction where they touch already played letters. Player score the points of the letters used, modified by newly covered coloured squares on the board.
