About the Game

"Star Words – The board game" is a collection of word games for the whole family: gather as many people as you can around a single device and have fun together! There is no limit to the number of players who can participate: even in competitive games, organize into teams to double the fun! The game is turn-based, so only one controller is needed: it will be passed between players (it is also fully playable with a mouse and keyboard).

The core mechanism of the game involves moving spaceships on a grid: to do this, you need to find as many words as possible related to a category with the assigned (or chosen) initial letter. With this simple mechanic, various game modes are available, both cooperative and competitive.

Save the galaxy and face twelve missions in a cooperative adventure: form a single team that makes decisions together to defeat a monstrous alien race! Everyone will be active players, not only in decision-making but also in finding the words that will allow you to move the spaceships and complete the objective.

In Planet Rush, a competitive mode, you'll split into teams (up to twelve) and compete to be the first to bring a set number of ships to your planet, with the same core mechanics. For the best gameplay experience, it's recommended to have fewer but larger teams—but the choice is yours!

And that's not all: Galaxy Grand Prix, Space Snakes, Tic-Tac-Galaxy… So, what are you waiting for? Hop on board and explore a galaxy of words!
