Wordage

Wordage is a card game with two identical decks for 2-8 players. Each gets 14 cards. Players take turns drawing, laying down words, adding letters, or replacing jokers. The initial meld requires at least 14 points and a 5+ letter word of one color. The first to empty their hand except for one discard wins the round. The overall winner must win two consecutive rounds. A party scoring variant is also included.
