Word Bank
Players build a circular bank from seven letter cards, each with spaces for gems. On a turn, a player announces a password, chooses a starting letter and a direction, then places gems on matching letters encountered in the password’s order. A letter card with all spaces filled is claimed and replaced. The game ends when a player has no gems remaining. Players total the gems they hold and those on the cards in play; the lowest total wins, with ties broken by the most claimed letter cards.
