Book Reviews of Royalty Word-Building Word-Capturing Card Game
Book Review: Best word game ever
Summary: 5 Stars
My family and friends and I have been avid Royalty fans for over 15 years now. It is similar to Scrabble, but adds the fun of rearranging letters on the table to make new words. It's sort of a cross between Scrabble and Rumikub, two of my favorite games.
The setup is that you draw 7 cards. Each turn you have you can make one word using the letters in your hand and you can "steal" one word from the table by adding letters from your hand to it and rearranging if necessary. Game play is fun with two players, but gets more exciting with more players as there are so many options of words to rearrange and steal. For instance, someone might play "EEL". The next player (in addition to making a word from within their hand) might steal that word and play "LEER" by adding an R. The next player could then add an A, E and S to make RELEASE, and so on. You get double points for having all your letters in one color or using your entire hand. It's a great travel game and makes a wonderful gift for any Scrabble lover.
