Description

From the inside of the lid: "Object of the game is to make as many words as possible from the ten (10) letters obtained by spinning the wheels" Each player has a set of markers and a mini-roulette wheel of the same color. Each hole on the wheel corresponds to two letters of the alphabet and a number. The board is divided into quadrants, each having a color matching a wheel and a hole where the wheel sets into. Players play only on their like-colored quadrant. Each quadrant shows an alphabet list. Players spin their own wheels 5 times to get a set of 10 letters, marked with a disk on the board. When the 10 letters are obtained, the sand timer is flipped and players race to make the most words from their letters. The game advertised 6 games total that can be played. However, the main game, described above, requires some skill. The other 5 (including one using the numbers on the wheels) are completely luck driven.
