Boggle Bash Now Out

Tweet

Boggle has finally come to Pogo! If you don't know what Boggle is, it's another word game. The letters are first shaken up in a cube. Then when they settle into the tray, you have to try to form words. The letters can be up, down, left, right, or even diagonal. Just as long as they're right next to each other. The thing that is different is that you're really not playing against others. You're actually working together to achieve a goal. If you've ever played Everyone Wins Bingo, it's the same concept. When you play, you'll be seated at 1 of 4 tables with up to 5 players at each table. Make as many words as you can before time runs out. There are three different goals. I've only come across one so far and that's finding a certain amount of words. Another is scoring a certain number of points. The third one I'm not sure about so I won't bother explaining that until I come across it to see how it works. LOL As for scoring, 3 and 4 lettered words are worth 1 point. The 5 lettered words are 2, 6 are worth 3, and 7 are worth 5. If you manage to pull off an 8 lettered word, that's worth 11 points. And even though "Qu" is on one tile, it counts as 2 letters. There's also a Panic Flip, which I haven't come across yet. Basically it will switch letters around for the last minute of the last round and possibly opening the door for more words. I think that's pretty much it. I can't play for too long because I have to go to work. But if you'd like to give it a go, here's the link. http://www.pogo.com/games/boggle Good luck and let us know how you like it!
