The board game

Alphablitz! started on our table. Three to five players work together against a five-minute timer, playing letter cards onto a shared grid to spell words that match each category card. Clear the stack before the sand runs out.

How it plays

  1. Deal a 4x4 grid of letter cards and give everyone a hand of letters.
  2. Flip a category card, like A BODY PART or A WORD ENDING WITH -ING, and start the timer.
  3. Play cards from your hand onto the grid to spell a word that fits the card. Call out ideas and help each other find the letters.
  4. Every word that fits clears the card. Clear the whole stack before time runs out and you all win.

The daily on your phone is the solo version: the same letter cards and category cards, one grid a day, and a leaderboard instead of a team.

From the playtest table

Alphablitz! has been on playtest tables for a while now. Here’s how it’s coming along.
