buyword
BuyWord is a game of words with a twist. You pay good hard cash to buy your letters, then form a word to sell at a profit, if you can. Your payoff depends on the quantity and the quality of the letters in your word. BuyWord mixes basic mathematics, money management, and good old-fashioned word-building in a simple, yet elegant blend that keeps every player involved in every turn until the very end. BuyWord is the second game in the Sid Sackson Signature Series.

Setup
- Each player starts with 200 dollars.
- Each players gets 8 wild tiles for 1 player, 4 for 2 players, 3 for 3 players and 2 for 4 players.
Gameplay
- At the start of each round, a die is thrown.
- The number on it is the number of tiles drawn by each player this round.
- If it is “choice”, the first player chooses a number from 2 to 5.
- Starting from the first player, each player may buy all or none of their drawn tiles.
- If you choose to buy all, pay an amount of money equal to the square of the total number of pips on them. Otherwise, discard them.
- Starting from the first player, each player may sell any number of words.
- If you want to play a word, discard the tiles needed and get an amount of money equal to the square of the total number of pips on them.
- A wild tile counts as any letter, but each word may only have one wild.
- At the end of the round, each player must discard down to 8 letters, excluding wilds.
- Afterwards, the last player becomes the first player and a new round is started.
End of the Game
- The last round starts when the last letter is drawn. If the tiles drawn cannot satisfy the requirements, they are all discarded.
- After all players sell their last words, the player with the most money wins.
- For solo, a score of $800 is considered a “fair” performance, $900 is “good” and $1000 is “outstanding.”
