About Movable Type
Description from the publisher: Movable Type is a card-drafting, word-building game. You can think of it as a little like Scrabble crossed with Sushi Go. Over a series of 4 rounds, players will draft cards and score words in order to build a victory pile. Impressive words may also earn the player author challenge cards, which give a variety of immediate and lasting abilities. In the final round, it will be the victory pile that provides the letters for their final mega-word and provides players with a chance to win the game. Movable Type is a family-friendly word game for up to 4 players. It rewards savvy planning - not just an extensive knowledge of words!
