Quickword: The Ultimate Word Game

Rating:
Summary: A Fast Paced, Fascinating, Entertaining Word Game!
Review: "Quickword" is one of the most entertaining word games I have seen, or played in a long time. A few weekends ago we had some friends over for dinner and they brought the game with them for some post meal fun. And we did have a blast with this fast paced, entertaining game of skill and logic. The game involves a unique number of word skills, general knowledge, strategy and playing with speed under time pressure.

There are four decks of colored cards which determine the order of play. Blue cards ask the players to list all the words they can think of relating to a specific category, like "parts of an airplane." Green cards offer 6 categories and the players write one word for each, beginning with the letter indicated by the spinner on the gameboard. Pink and gray cards ask the players to perform other word oriented tasks.

Pencils, pads, timer, gameboard, cards are all included. For two or more players, age teen to adult - although I bet some precocious preteens could give you a run for your money! Highly recommended!
