Description
Letter Jam is a 2-6 player cooperative word game, where players assist each other in composing meaningful words from letters around the table. The trick is holding the letter card so that it’s only visible to other players and not to yourself.
At the start of the game, each player receives a set of face-down letter cards that can be rearranged to form an existing word. The setup can be prepared by using a special card scanning app, or by players selecting words for each other. Each player then puts their first card in their stand to face the other players without looking at it, and the game begins.
The game is played in turns. Each turn, players simultaneously search other players’ letters to see what words they can spell out (telling the others the length of the word they can make up). The player who offers the longest word can then be chosen as the clue giver.
The clue giver spells out their clue by putting numbered tokens in front of the other players. Number one goes to the player whose letter comes first in the clue, number two to the second letter etc. They can always use a wild card which can be any letter, but they cannot tell others which letter it represents.
Each player with a numbered token (or tokens) in front of them then tries to figure out what their letter is. If they do, they place the card face down before revealing the next letter. At the end of the game, players can then rearrange the cards to try to form an existing word. All players then reveal their cards to see if they were successful or not. The more players that have an existing word in front of them, the bigger their common success is.
Number of Players: 2-6
Playing Time: 45 Minutes

Jeu de mots coopératif | |
Jeu où il faut deviner et faire deviner des lettres. Parfois très évident, parfois un peu plus complexe lorsqu'on se retrouve avec que des voyelles. Le joker nous apporte alors son aide. |

Belle révélation | |
Nous adorons ce jeu car il est simple en règle mais peut devenir compliqué selon la sélection de lettres disponibles. Il faut donc être créatif. Le but est de de créer des mots avec les lettres disponibles pour permettre aux autres joueurs de trouver leurs lettres cachées. J'ai joué souvent avec mon conjoint et nous adorons. Nous jouons bilingue français et anglais, car c'est plus facile ainsi. J'ai aussi joué en français avec ma famille et ils ont beaucoup apprécié, mais si vous voulez jouer en français je recommande de prendre la version française maintenant disponible, car en anglais il y a beaucoup de W, K et y qui sont plus difficiles à utiliser en français. Il est facile d'approche et n'importe qui va aimé ce jeu. Je recommande fortement! |

Un jeu à qui il faut donner sa chance et beaucoup d’amour | |
La sortie de ce jeu a concordé avec celle de Code Names quelques années plus tôt. Il a bénéficié de la bonne presse du premier pour se faire une niche dans quelques ludothèques. Il faut y rejouer pour l’apprécier davantage et le faire avec un maximum de joueurs pour avoir l’impression d’en profiter adéquatement. Un bon casse-tête linguistique. Faut prévoir quelques minutes pour bien l’expliquer aux non-initiés. |

Facile à jouer | |
Super simple et un bon jeu pour jouer avec des gens qui ne sont pas des fans-finis de jeux de table. Très accessible pour tous! Jeux anglais mais facile d'y jouer en français. |
