Word War 2
The Game
Word War 2 by Kalypso Arts, LLC, was created and designed by artist and educator, Kathy L. Jackson. Word War 2 challenges word game fans to combine common knowledge, trivia and quick thinking to say common 2-word nouns and phrases. Answers are funny, factual, fictional, foreign, flubbed, profane, but mostly, familiar! The D-Day Scenario has even greater challenges, extra time and bonuses.
Gameplay
Each player has five seconds to say a familiar 2-word or compound word answer for the drawn card's letter pair on their turn. Answers must be acceptable. If not challenged, play proceeds until a player bombs. This includes a bad answer, a repeat, a variation of a previous answer or an M.I.A. (missing in action). In all cases, the player takes the card(s) immediately. That player draws and a new round begins. Player with he fewest cards wins so, listen carefully and think fast!
3 to 6 Players • Teams • Solo • Ages 14+
Word War 2– The New Card Game Addi(c)tion!
The Word War 2 Card Game is great for players who can turn a phrase. "The luck o' the draw" can allow players to claim the most popular answers for common letter pairs, first. Familiar foreign phrases are acceptable as they're often used. The D-Day Scenario limits the scope of answers, demanding a sharper focus. Some of the most 'colorful' phrases originated in the military, so "bombs away!" and "let 'er rip!"
Ensure "the coast is clear" before saying the 'saltiest' answers.
Word War 2 provides over an hour of playing time as it contains 162 cards. With some creativity, games can last even longer. Ante up, choose themes, etc. Play as many or as few cards as time allows. Play to win, play for fun, and play solo to challenge yourself often.
