Can You Figure Out the Word?

There's a problem with family word games: The player who knows the most words usually wins. So we designed Code Stack!™ for people of different ages and vocabularies (like parents and kids) to play together. Stack up colorful discs to make words in a simple code, then race to figure out your opponents' words. Young players guess shorter words and older players guess longer words, so it's not how many words you know that matters. Code Stack! features rules for four games (including solitaire), all using the same clever coding system. Can you crack the code?

• Players use a clever color code to form words
• Everyone plays at once, racing to figure out the other players words
• Features bonus gameplay versions, all designed for kids and parents to play on equal terms
