Description

Get ready to test your word skills with Charge Account: Jan Murray's TV Word Game, a classic game from 1961 that's all about forming words and winning prizes. Designed for 2 to 3 players, this game is easy to learn and can be explained quickly, making it a great option for a fun night in with friends. The goal is simple: create as many 3 and 4 letter words as possible from letters called out by the Master of Ceremonies, who can be one of the players. Letters are placed on a 16 square grid, and contestants can choose where to put them, but once they're down, they can't be moved. As you create words, you'll earn dollar points that you can use to buy prizes, ranging from a record player to a cabin cruiser. The twist is that you'll be using a charge account to purchase these prizes, and the player with the highest total retail price of prizes at the end of the game wins. With its unique blend of word game and prize-collecting mechanics, Charge Account: Jan Murray's TV Word Game is a fun and challenging game that's sure to keep you entertained. Whether you're a word game enthusiast or just looking for a fun game to play with friends, this game is a great choice, and its simple rules make it easy to jump in and start playing right away.
