What's The Word?™

My daughter said "we should play this every day - it's quick and so fun!"

I really enjoyed playing What's the Word. Not too taxing on the brain but gets the wheels turning. Really recommended!

I thought I was sitting down for a casual game night, but little did I know I was about to embark on an intense word-slinging battle royale! This game had me pulling words out of thin air like a magician trying to keep up with a disappearing rabbit. At one point, I swear I was making up words just to stay afloat—hey, desperate times, right?

There I was, out of my seat, pacing like a coach in a championship match, determined not to finish last. My competitive spirit kicked in hard, and I found myself yelling at the board as if it would miraculously give me a triple-word score. Spoiler: it did not.

But the real magic? I laughed and smiled the entire time. Even when I was scrambling to find a word longer than three letters, I couldn’t help but enjoy every second. This game isn’t just fun—it’s a workout for your brain, a test of your vocabulary under pressure, and a surefire way to get everyone in the room laughing.

In the end, I might not have won, but I walked away with the title of "Most Entertaining Competitor" (self-awarded, of course). If you're looking for a game that brings out your inner wordsmith, pushes you to the edge of your seat, and keeps you grinning from ear to ear, this one's a winner!

What's the WORD is a TIME!!! We get real serious about it real quick and it's so addictive to the very end. This is the game you wanna play for hours cuz it's a brain exercise, a vocabulary flex for us nerds and a strategic chutes and ladders. This is a game night STAPLE officially.

I've introduced this game now to several groups spanning the full age range and it is a great time, every time! Even Auntie "I don't like board games" was all in on the fun and competition. Young kids can play alongside adults and fully join in - just be careful grown-ups, my kids had to institute a "no taking over the game" rule for the adults! Just the right mix of pace, strategy and fun to get everybody engaged, laughing, and going for the win.

Enjoyed this game immensely at family game night. It’s more challenging than it seems! Great for kids to learn new words and think about vocabulary. Also a good time for adult game play.

Great game to play for the whole family! Highly recommend it!

This game had us saying "Nah, again" over and over. Trying to come up with just the right word combo AND beat the clock is trickier than it seems! An excellent bragging rights opportunity for winners.

This game is amazing. It forces you to use so many different sides of your brain because you have to not only come up with words, you have to keep strategy in mind on the board to win! It’s also hilarious for people of all ages to play. Watch out for your great aunts who play the elder card when they try to convince you that a word is real. Hah!! I will be playing this forever!!!

When someone pulled this out at the cookout I was like ❌. They pressed me and I gave in 🫣…and let me tell you, I’m so glad I did! I had such a good time playing this game. It’s fast paced and the spaces on the board kept everyone on their toes. It was so good I went out and bought one for myself! Even if you’re not into “word games” give this one a try!
