Contents: SCRABBLE BOGGLE Game with Electronic Timer
Object
Find as many words as you can in the 4 x 4 letter grid. To win,
be the player with the highest score at the end of a 3-minute
game; or be the first player to reach the designated point limit
in a tournament game. Or practice by yourself to beat your
personal best!
How to Play
Players sit around the table so that everyone can see the Boggle
grid when it’s in play. Each player will need a pencil and paper
(not included).
To start the game, do the following:
1. Turn the lid clockwise as far as it will go, to lower the grid base.
See Figure 1.
2. Shake the letter cubes to mix them up. If necessary, jiggle the
cubes until they fall into place in the grid base.

3. Now turn the lid counterclockwise as far as it will go, making
sure the letter cubes are lying flat in the base. See Figure 2.
The timer light in the Boggle “o” will flash on to begin the
countdown!
4. Now quickly place the game in the center of the play area, and
all players start looking for words.
Finding Words
Search the assortment of letters for words of three or more letters.
Words are formed from letters that adjoin in sequence horizontally,
vertically or diagonally in any direction. No letter may be used
more than once within a single word.
When you find a word, write it down. Keep looking and writing
until time’s up!
Bonus Letters
If there’s a letter with red around it in your grid,
you’ll score double for words you make that include
this letter!
Right and wrong words: Figures 3, 4 and 5 show how words may
be formed using the adjoining letters S, O, L, I.

Try your skill at finding the hidden words in the grid above.
There are more than 70, including molar, prose and turmoil.
Can you find more?
Types of Words Allowed
Any words (noun, verb, adjective, adverb, etc.), plural of, form of,
or tense is acceptable as long as it can be found in a standard
English dictionary. Words within words are also allowed: spare,
spa, par, are, spar, pare. Proper nouns (Smith, Ohio, France, etc.)
are not allowed.
Scoring and Winning
When time runs out, the timer light will stop flashing red and make
a soft beep. All players must stop writing. Each player in turn then
reads his or her list aloud. IMPORTANT: Any word that appears on
more than one player’s list must be crossed off all lists – and no
one gets credit for it!
Double the score for any words that included a bonus letter!
The winner is the player 1) who earned the most points when play
stopped, or 2) who is the first player to reach the tournament score
– 50 points, 100 points, or whatever was decided before playing.
Things to Remember
• Multiple meanings of the same spelling do not earn multiple credit.
For example, the word t-e-a-r for rip or cry counts only once.
• The same word found by a player in different areas of the grid
may not be counted for multiple credit.
• The QU counts as two letters.
• Both the M and the W have a line under them.
• The Z has a line under it and should not be read as an N.
• You get full credit for both the singular and plural of a noun –
as long as you wrote down both. See Figure 3: OIL and OILS.
• For the highest score, look for unusual words that others might
miss – and that will earn you more points!
WRONG
In Figure 6 (SOILS), the one S is used twice.
In Figure 7 (SOAR), the letter R was skipped.
