Dicewords comes in a smart tube and is probably the most compact word game ever. But despite its size, this game certainly is substantial! There are 9 special alphabet dice, featuring letters on their faces and score values depending on how usuable they are. The aim of the games is to build the highest-scoring word you can. The key to this game is that the contents of the entire set are listed on what is called The Dice Table, each die being identifiable by a unique colour (and a special character for the colour blind). The Dice Table enables you to assess the chance of achieving particular letters when rerolling, making for a compelling game of luck, skill and judgement. And the Dicewords set offers over 10 million combinations, so it's a different game every time. )
An ideal game for travel and summer holidays, easy to pop into a pocket or handbag and an excellent game for Christmas and those long winter nights. An ideal aid for foreign students learning English too!

?Dicewords is an excellent, very well-realised game, not to mention a very portable one - the dice, rules and scoring sheets are all contained in a snug little plastic tube. Also, the packaging is designed in such a way that there are no superfluous bits of plastic wrapping or cardboard that will end up on a landfill somewhere. A small point, perhaps, but an example of the kind of thought and consideration that?s gone into every aspect of the game. Dicewords is a class act through and through, and I?d recommend it to anyone.? Review by Ben Rainbird, the actor
