Word Play is played like Wordle but with a few differences.
Game Play:
- The object of the game is to guess a 5 letter word in four or less guesses.
- Two teams will be created, and a captain will be appointed for each team.
- At the start of each round, a team will be given the first letter of the word.
- The team will then have 4 chances to guess the word.
- On each guess, the host will reveal if any letter is in the correct position, as well as letters that are in the word but not in the correct position.
- If the team can't guess the word in 4 turns, the other team will have a chance to steal.
- Plurals and Proper nouns will not be used as a word.
Points:
1st Guess: 25 points
2nd Guess: 20 points
3rd Guess: 10 points
4th Guess: 5 points
Steal: 5 points
Power-Ups
Each team will have 2 power-ups at the start of the game: vowel volcano and lucky letter.
Vowel Volcano
All the vowels in the word will be revealed including the letter Y.
Lucky Letter
A random letter in the word will be revealed.
Teams can use their power-ups at any given point throughout the game.
Each team can earn more power-ups in 3 different ways.
- The team gets a vowel volcano and lucky letter if they solve the word on their first guess.
- The team gets a random power-up if they solve the word on their second guess.
- If a team solves a word as a steal, they will have a chance to choose whether they want 5 points or a random power-up
