Phonogram

A word game with a difference! -- Phonogram focusses on the phonetic pronunciation of words, rather than their spelling! Designed for EFL (English as a Foreign Language) students, Phonogram has also been a hit among English language educators as a quick and fun way to improve knowledge and use of the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) Using a colour-coded selection of 210 phoneme tiles, each player works independently to create their own 'crossword' (no board required). When a player uses up all their letters, all players take a new tile from the pool. When all the tiles are gone, the first player to use up all the tiles in their hand wins. The game is suitable for solo, group and team play, and may be adjusted to reflect different accents and even other languages that can be expressed in basic IPA phonemes.
