    The gamemaster starts the game by issuing a word to the first player (eg. Apple). Players take turn to say a word created from the alphabet of the last issued word.

    For example,
    Gamemaster: Apple
    Player1: Elephant
    Player 2: Tank
    Player 3: Kid

    The aim of the game is for every successive player to say a new word while keeping a fast pace. Players who hesitate or cannot come up with a word (in 3 seconds) would be eleminated. Players should sit in a circle or in a manner where it is possible to speak in sequence.

    Variations:

    1. Using a theme for the words constructed (Military, Positive Words, Kitchen Appliances)
    2. Using words with minimum number of characters (eg. words with at least 4 alphabets)
