Description

Alpha Blitz is a fast-paced word game that's all about thinking on your feet and coming up with clever combinations of letters. Designed by Mike Selinker and first published in 1998, this game is easy to learn but challenging to master. With two different games in one, Alpha Blitz offers something for everyone, whether you're playing with a friend or a group of up to six players. In Alpha Blitz, players compete to come up with the longest words possible using a set of letters, with bonus points for using tricky letters like J, K, Qu, X, and Z. The game moves quickly, with each round lasting only a few minutes, and the whole game wrapping up in about 30 minutes. With its simultaneous action selection and spelling mechanics, Alpha Blitz is a thrilling way to challenge your vocabulary and your strategic thinking, and it's no wonder it was awarded the title of Best Word Game by Games Magazine in 1999.
