Last Word - The Game

Product Information

Just like in the solo game, each player gets a subject card and plays the same way except that the player who says the Last Word scores the point for the team. The information does not usually directly identify you, but it can give you a more personalised and consistent web experience. Each puzzle had two words already revealed, they acted as clues to the third word, which was unrevealed (one letter was given at the outset). I should also point out that it’s VERY easy to accidentally leave the buzzer turned on after packing it away, in which case you’ll end up wasting the AAA batteries inside it.

This board game is an excellent addition to any toy or game collection and is suitable for all occasions.We found some general agreement is often needed to which answers actually fit the categories but we did not have any issues with that (more competitive players may get annoyed by it). The Last Word is a game show seen in syndication in the United States and on the Global Television Network in Canada that was produced by Merrill Heatter Productions and ran for 65 episodes from September 18 to December 15, 1989, with reruns continuing until January 5, 1990.

Separate the Subject and Letter cards, shuffle them, and place them in the designated place on the board.

Unlike most celebrity-civilian word games, the arrangement of which people played in each game varied. The Last Word was a word game where a group of words share a common bond, and where the last word means everything.

The timer itself is pretty neat; it flashes a small LED for a random time period (five to ten seconds) before emitting an annoying buzz.

We use cookies to personalise content and ads to you, to provide social media features and to analyse our traffic. The random factor adds to the intensity, though I do wish you could adjust it to short, medium, and long intervals based on how you want to play. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. The timer, cleverly programmed to go off at random intervals, means everyone has to race the timer to get the last word in!

Similar, if the subject is “Foreign Cities” and the letter is D, Dubbin, Denmark and Dubai are possible answers. If you knew how much time you had each round, you could try and wait until the last moment to blurt out words in hopes of winning.

If no one can do this before the buzzer sounds, the person who declared a "Jump Start" gains two points. I don't mind the green color that seems to seep into the components, but there's really nothing that distinguishes this game from any other.

As a time traveler on a budget, when your improvised time machine malfunctions and you’re taken prisoner in an unknown era, you must work with another traveler to escape. After having a moment to read it to themselves, one player turns over the letter card and announces the letter out loud. If time ran out in the middle of a puzzle, all the words were revealed and a new puzzle was played at the start of the next episode.
