Letter Jam is a cooperative game for 2 to 6 players. In each round, every player has a letter that everyone else can see. But no one can see their own letter!
Letter Jam is a 2–6 player cooperative word game, where players assist each other in composing meaningful words from letters around the table. The trick is holding the letter card so that it’s only visible to other players and not to yourself.
By doing so, each player gradually learns what letters they’re holding. At the end of the game, by filling in the blanks and rearranging their letter cards, everyone has to find the word hidden within these cards, still without looking at them.
In the end, the more players managed to create an existing word, the bigger their common success!
The game will require everyone to use their best vocabulary. Both deduction and composition skills with a little bit of good old teamwork are the necessary qualities that will lead you to success.
Players try to find words that can be made with the letters they see. The player with the best clue spells it by marking the letters with numbered tokens. Your letter’s position in the clue helps you guess what it might be. Then you can move on to a new one! Guess them all before clues run out, and unscramble your hidden word.
