Game play: Each player has a game sheet with a 5x5 grid for entering letters and their point values, as well as three rubbish bins for rejecting a letter. One player turns over a letter card, and all players enter that letter and the letter's point value (printed on the card) in one of the spaces of their grid, or a bin, if they want to discard the letter. Play continues until 28 cards have been drawn. Players then score by finding all words in a player's grid and adding up the letter values. The player with the highest score wins.
