Description

Letter dice are arranged in a rack into seven columns of five dice each. Players compete to "poke" dice from the bottom of the columns onto their opponent's side of the rack by spelling words. The game ends when neither player can make a word. The player with the fewest dice on their side of the rack wins.

The game comes with rules for speed play and for timed play. The rack is made from plastic with inlaid wood portions. The game also includes 35 letter dice, six orange wild cubes, and a sand timer.
