For 2 to 4 players. Game includes: game board with 10 X 10 grid; 100 plastic letter titles; 4 plastic racks; 4 rubber feet; able sheet; instructions. Box artwork may vary.

Editorial Review:
Upwords takes the likes of Scrabble to new heights. Players get more power out of every word and create more play possibilities. Players can build from words crossword puzzle-style or by stacking letters on top of tiles already on the board. The challenge is to make new words each time. For example, "stack" becomes "snack," then "snapshot." If it sounds like 3-D Scrabble, there's more to know. Scoring is simpler: each tile earns two points, and each stacked tile earns one. The usual Nos apply: no capitalized, hyphenated, or abbreviated words, etc. The set comes with 100 letter tiles, tile racks for two to four players, and a plastic game board. --Lynne Sampson

- Upwords Game is fun and educational
I tried finding Upwords in retail stores but could not. I am so happy to have found it online. I am playing with my granddaughter to keep her mind challenged during her summer vacation.

- Great game. Could have better quality game pieces...
This is a great game for everyone. Especially good for younger people since they can spell "shorter" words and still win the game. Great positive reinforcement for spelling and reading.
I do like the original game better- the tiles are bigger. I think the newer version is not as well made and I don't like the smaller tiles. And where is the bag for the letters?? I bought a newer version because I wanted to leave a game at my mountain cabin where we have no TV and play games at night. I'm going ... Read More

- Fun Game!
This is a fun game that I remember from my own childhood. I got it for my own kids and I play it a lot with them. Fun game and a great "thinking" game.

- Fun & Challenging
Amazon is referring to this game as a "toy," but it is a "toy" for children, as well as adults. I bought Upwords for myself and I am 46 yrs old. I play it with adults. And it is challenging and fun. It is a different spin on Scrabble. Anyone who likes word games, such as Scrabble, will like Upwords. [Another game, from the 1960's, that is no longer on the market,"Scribbage," is another one that word game lovers would enjoy in their collection.}

The older version of the game was better in ... Read More
