Wordy Word pits two teams against one another with each team creating words so that the other team can try to figure out what was created. At the start of each round, teams flip their sand timer and roll five colored, twelve-sided, letter dice; each color corresponds to a row on their dry erase tablet, with the yellow die indicating what the first letter in a word must be, the purple die indicating the second letter in a separate word must be, and so on. The team members think up words that fit these constraints as quickly as possible, stopping their sand timer as soon as they are finished.

Following this, a member of the other team looks at the word list, starts the same sand timer in reverse — thereby giving him as much time as the team took to write down its words — then tries to get their teammates to guess these five words. Clue-giving is done Taboo-style, and that team scores one point for each word guessed in the time allowed.

Players can play any number of rounds and the team to score the most points wins!
