CONCEPT

Form a word from three letters in the order presented.

Play begins with the draw of three cards from the master deck, which contains three full alphabets.

The three cards are then arranged as they would appear on a license plate.

 

RULES

Letters must appear in the same order as the draw.

Words must contain at least four letters.

Short words score higher.

Mark your score from the column of the last letter.

Long words score lower.

Double your score if the letters are adjacent.

Duplicated words score zero.

Single valid entry scores double.

Every form of the word is considered unique:

SCORE, SCORES, SCORED, SCORING

Players are allowed to use dictionary tools to confirm their decision. Hyphenated words are valid. Only proper nouns are not allowed.

If no player can form a word, the draw is discarded and play resumes with a new draw.

High score wins after 10 rounds.

 

Time limit: Five minutes for each round.
