From BoardGameGeek

Spell Out! is an all-new word game from Next Dimension Games. Wordplay challenges meet area-control gameplay as 1-4 players race to claim words on the board before their opponents, blocking other players' moves on the way and claiming bonuses wherever possible. Choose your words wisely - the game depends on it! Play starts by revealing a challenge card, for example 'words with the blend CK' and each come up with a 5-letter word that fits, e.g. cloCK. Players then take it in turns to move their pieces on the board, aiming to line them up with all the letters in their word and declare "Spell Out!" before their opponents can do the same. Letters on the outer ring win you a bonus token if you can get them into a word, and you can exchange it later for an extra turn, but beware! Spent tokens are claimed by opponents, potentially handing them a very useful extra move! With bounce spaces for advanced movement strategies, randomised start positions and two difficulty levels of cards, Spell Out is the always-fresh word game for families and groups of all ages, skilful wordsmiths and seasoned gamers alike. Spell Out also includes a Solo Challenge Mode and multiple optional play variants. -description from designer
