Word Game
Description
Iago is a sneaky game of wordplay and strategy for two players. The goal is simple: use letter tiles to create words on a square grid, trying to outmaneuver your opponent and end up with more tiles on the board. But here's the twist - words are not set in stone, and can be stolen by your opponent if they can change the form and meaning of the word by adding or substituting letters. This game of verbal sparring is easy to learn, but challenging to master, and a typical game takes about 30 minutes to play. Designed by Alex Randolph and first published in 1984, Iago is a classic word game that requires a combination of vocabulary, tactical thinking, and a bit of luck. With its unique tile placement mechanics and time-pressure element, Iago is a fun and engaging game that will keep you on your toes.
