Spell Track

Spell Track is one of the 8 games in Dr. Finn's Book of Two-Player Strategy and Word Games. The game consists of one game sheet and requires no other components -- just a pencil for each player.

Players race to score 12 points by spelling words. In each round, a random throw of fingers determines a row or column of letters (from a grid of letter) in which players will choose from. Players use the letters to slowly build words. You score bonuses for longer words, but also for being the first to spell words, so you have to balance trying to score bigger valued words than your opponent, but also being first to do so.
