Description Edit | History

(From the game box)
My Word! is a fascinating battle of wits for two people

How My Word! is played
You attempt to discover your opponent's Gamewords by using Guesswords with letters that not only appear in the Gameword, but that also fall in matching position. By the last turn of each round, if you are clever enough, you will be able to correctly name your opponent's Gameword and score a special bonus. You are the winner in My Word! if you have the higher score at the end of two rounds of play.

2 6-Letter ACT Study Words
As I considered using this with my class, I also thought it would be great for preparing my sophomores for the ACT. Why not combine study and a great game. There are approximately 150 on this list. Some may be off by a letter--it was 4am when I did this.

9 Language independent sheets...
Improved version of the scoring, you can add each try to have the running total. I found it was really uncomfortable to add everything in the end! And I suppressed the "Ñ" at the side panel, now it is international, if you play in Spanish you can anyway add the "~" on the "N".
