Description

Roots: A Game of Inventing Words is a wildly creative and entertaining game that's all about making up new words and convincing your friends that they're the best. With simple rules that can be explained in no time, 3 to 5 players can dive into a 30-minute game of linguistic trickery and storytelling. Designed by James Pianka and first published in 2015, Roots combines hand management, tile placement, and voting to create a unique and engaging experience. As players combine prefix and suffix cards to invent new words, they'll need to think on their feet and come up with clever explanations to convince their opponents that their word is the most relevant to the subject at hand. But beware - power cards can be used to sabotage your friends' progress or advance your own, adding a delicious layer of strategy and social interaction to the game. With its mix of creativity, storytelling, and cunning, Roots is a great fit for fans of word games, party games, and educational games alike, making it a fantastic addition to any game night or casual gathering.
