User summary:
Played individually or in teams, this game involves travelling around a board, collecting letters which you'll use at the end of the game to make as many words as possible. Getting around the board *quickly* isn't necessarily a good idea because then you'll have less letters!
Despite dice rolling, multiple tracks on the board allow players to make choices about their paths. Landing in some places get you more letters or let you steal letters from opponents.
