Introduction

I enjoy Word games especially. I like to try all kinds but have found many of them to be too dry, restrictive or nerve-wracking. I have invented a card game that may have mass appeal -- "Play on Words," a combination of Scrabble, Anagrams and Rummy.

What is your favorite board game and what board game would you love to try out?

Of course, the beloved Scrabble game, but also UpWords. On occasion Boggle or Banagrams, but they're a little too tedious and I don't like timers. I'd like to try word games that are played strategically with cards, to compare them to my idea.

  • Sorry I wasn't able to attend the two recent ones you posted. Still interested, though, so let me know if there are others.

  • I would be interested in your game testing but not sure yet if I can make it Thursday. Can you keep posting other dates/times throughout the upcoming weeks, as you mentioned, in the same format (through Social Scrabble) so that I see the notices? I am never able to go to Social Scrabble on Sundays, but I do get the emails. Thanks.

  • OK. I've been there before, just not at rush hour. I do remember, a few years ago, 494 being a parking lot in the evening. I hope you get enough people to try out your game.
