How to play

  1. 1

    The app picks a letter

    Every round starts with a new letter and a ticking clock: 30, 60 or 90 seconds.

  2. 2

    Fill every column

    Write a name, a place, an animal and a thing starting with that letter. Add Food, Movie, Bird, Fruit or Brand for more.

  3. 3

    Shout STOP!

    Filled every box? Stop the clock. Quick thinking wins: in solo games, every second left is a bonus point if all your answers count.
