Zoot!

If you enjoy Scrabble or Wordle .. Zoot! is here to make your word-nerdy dreams come true!

Object : To obtain the highest number of points by combining the 7 cards in your hand into a single word. Re-arrange your cards until they come close to forming a word. Start your turn by drawing either the face-up card or the one at the top of the draw pile. Then discard one of your other cards to end your turn.

The first person to form a word and yell Zoot! wins the round, and adds 10 points to their score. Their opponent then has one more chance to make a 7-letter word. They pick up one additional card from either draw pile and add a wild card to their hand for a total of 9 cards. Game continues until all cards in the deck have been played, usually 4-5 rounds - and the highest final score is the winner.
