Description
Quickword: The Ultimate Word Game is a fast-paced and exciting board game that's all about word skills, logic, and general knowledge. Designed by Jody Boginski-Barbessi, S. E. McDonald, and H. E. McDonald, this 1991 classic is easy to learn but challenging to master. With two to twelve players, the game is perfect for large groups and parties, and a playtime of just 60 minutes means you can fit in a game even on a busy evening. In Quickword, players participate in every round, racing against the timer to come up with as many words as possible in just a few minutes. The twist is that words must fit into specific categories, letters, and clues, adding an extra layer of strategy and challenge. With four color categories to complete, the game is full of exciting moments as players outsmart each other to win rounds and check off colored boxes on the score pad. The first player to complete all color categories wins the game, making Quickword a thrilling and competitive experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Whether you're a word game enthusiast or just looking for a fun and social game to play with friends, Quickword is the perfect choice.
