This game is great to play at any time, for any reason, with any one! It is a great way to test your vocabulary and spelling and a great game in which to learn new words. My husband and I play all the time! It travels in the glove box in the car and we break it out whenever we have to wait around for anything. I have played this game with kids, teens, adults, the bright and the not-so-bright; every one has a great time playing.I will say that is best to have people of similar age play together or else the game is skewed in favor of the older person. Level of intelligence is not important as all you have to do is be the first person to shout out a word that contains all the letters currently shown. So whether you know small words, long words, short words or silly words this game makes vocabulary fun!! For those of us who are poor spellers be sure to keep a dictionary near by for those not-quite-sure moments.
