The Word-O box contains a set of 13 alpha dice, a sand timer and a dice cup. On a turn a player rolls all the dice. Sets the timer and then tries to make the highest scoring "mini" crossword before the time runs out. Like scrabble, each letter is worth points related to how difficult it will be to use. Some of the die have a wild symbol on them that can be used for any letter (at zero points). —user summary
