Word Stars
A fast-paced word deduction game in which teams race to solve a mystery word. Each round provides a hint and eight clue words, with players giving creative cues to identify the letters and reveal the target word. Coloured counters represent the available choices, while a dedicated score sheet tracks answers and points. This edition is a smaller, more portable version of the original.
