Gin Rummy using letters to make words. There are two decks of 52 cards with a letter and point value on each, plus a wild card. One deck is used for 2-3 players, two decks for 4 or more. Each player starts with a 10-card hand, and each turn consists of drawing a card and discarding a card. Once a player can use their 10 cards to make 2-3 words during their turn, they call "Gin-A-Word" and win the hand. Everyone then show their hand formed into words; the player who went out earns 25 points plus all the points in their hand, plus the value of the cards not used in words in all other players' hands. Multiple hands are played; a total of 150 points wins the game. The plastic box the game comes in also includes a tray for the draw and discard piles. —user summary
