The game uses category cards and letter cards. Once the game is set up, a 3 minute timer starts.

The idea is to think of as many words and names beginning with a specified letter within each selected category in each of 25 boxes on the grid sheet.

Score 10 points for unique answers and 5 points for answers duplicated by other players. A blank counts as zero. The first to reach 500 points wins.

To set up; players construct category headings for 5 columns on the grid sheet which are chosen by turning over 5 category cards.
Choosing row headings is different. Turn over a 6th category card and 1 letter card. The first player to shout out an answer of more than 5 letters receives 25 points and the first 5 different letters of this answer are used as row headings on the grid.
