For the first time, Scrabble players have control of

words on their boards simultaneously! After each round, players have the
option to choose a replacement letter from the bag or select one of the
face-up tiles on the prize tile podium. Another new feature is the wild
tile. Each time a wild tile is played, the player who utilizes the tile
must swap boards with an opponent, thwarting his strategy. The game ends
when all tiles are in use and the final word has been played. The most
innovative and fun way to play Scrabble since the original!

Lexogon - The Great Game of Words
“Lexogon” is a made-up word. It combines parts of
“lexicon” meaning “vocabulary” and “octagon”, referring to the
shape of the playing area.
What is Lexogon?
Lexogon is a challenging, fast-paced word game where you
think about words in a great new way.
Lexogon stretches your brain, memory and mettle. It
stimulates your vocabulary, your word recognition skills and your
creativity. But – most importantly – it makes you think, laugh and
want to play again.
And, unlike other word games, you’re not bored with
waiting for other players to complete their turn, because you’re playing
all the time.
The game's unique challenge
Think of a word that uses 3 clue letters in order, but
arranged in the special way required by your “Category Rule.” There
are seven different categories to solve. Category clues are determined
when you land on a particular color as you go around the board. Be the
first to come up with words for all seven categories and you’ve won.
But there’s risk, luck and strategy involved: you can
be challenged, you can lose a turn or credit for a category, you can send
someone back to “start”, you can “zap” or be “zapped” by
another player – it all depends on the roll of the die, the clues and
your way with words.
Different vocabulary skills levels can play together
Players of differing vocabulary skills can play together
since there is an “intermediate” deck of clue cards for a high school
level vocabulary and a “standard” deck for a college level vocabulary.

Sneak a Peek
Sneak A Peek is a new board game for 2006 that
enables everyone from the age of 12 to 112 the ability to solve even the
most difficult N.Y. Times crossword puzzle in an easy-to-play, interactive
board game. Players start the game with a blank puzzle and no clues. Okay,
that sounds pretty tough, but it gets easier as you go. Players amass
clues every turn based on the draw of a card and roll of a die. They may
answer one of their clues for points or receive a "Sneak A Peek"
letter from anywhere on the board. Answers are easily verified, and the
correct answer is entered on the playing board, with points either awarded
or deducted. The player notes their clues (and SAP letter if they pass
their turn) on their personal "cheat sheet," and play continues
to the next player. As the game progresses, the board is filling in, and
higher scoring opportunities, as well as heart rates, are escalating.
Players start realizing the answers to many of their earlier clues as well
as probable answers to partially completed words on the playing board.
Double and triple point cards, as well as SAP letters, keep everyone in
the game, and the wild cards will test your board game strategy. Do you
answer a clue that you’ve already figured out or receive new clues that
could be worth far more points? There is only one winner, but all players
will relish the wit of some of America’s premier crossword constructors
and the satisfaction of completing their puzzles. Variations of play let
you "raise the bar" to the ultimate crossword challenge. Are You
Game?

Syzygy is quick to set up so you can take it on trips or keep it handy for a spur-of-the-moment game.
Each player draws 9 letter tiles from a pool of 304 letter tiles. Someone says "Go" and everyone turns their tiles right side up and begins to construct a crossword puzzle. All words must connect just like a crossword puzzle.
First person to use all 9 tiles says "DRAW" and everyone must draw a new tile from the pool and proceed to add the new tile to their puzzle which may mean rearranging the tiles already placed. Words evolve, the puzzle evolves and when all the tiles are used up, first person to use their last tile yells "DONE". Everyone must stop. Each player now reads their words so that everyone can see that their puzzle is legitimately constructed. This gives the opportunity for players to learn vocabulary words from each other.
