This game contains 670 cards with words on them. These words are difficult to write, or barely known. So on each turn the players have to spell words or explain words. This is quite an educational game. Each token can raise higher by putting a plastic book underneath. The first with 3 books under his token wins.This game is the same as Oxford - the Great Oxford Game of the English Language and Het groot van Dale spel der Nederlandse taal, but in German. - BoardGameGeek
