Tricky Word Boxes

strategizing to outsmart their opponents.

 

Here's how it works:

1. Setup: Write each player's name in the scoring box in the bottom left corner of the board. Use a paper clip and pencil or a spinner to select a tricky word from the circle.

2. Gameplay: Players take turns spinning the tricky word spinner and then locating the word on the board. Once found, the player draws a line to connect any two dots that form part of the square around the tricky word. If the line drawn closes a square, the player marks an X in the square and earns a tally mark in the scoring box.

3. Strategy and Skill: As the game progresses, players must strategize to both claim squares and prevent their opponents from doing the same. Quick thinking and careful planning are key to victory!
