📖 About This Game

In the game Letterjacht ("Letter Hunt"), each player tries to collect letter tiles needed to spell a four-letter word they've secretly chosen at the beginning of the game. Each turn, a player rolls the die, and move their pawn the indicated number of spaces on the board. They'll land on a space associated with a specific letter, or a letter hunt space. If they land on a letter space, the player has to answer a trivia question (of which the answer is a word starting with the corresponding letter). If they are successful, they gain a matching letter tile. If they don't know the answer, they may choose pass the question to another player. If that player answers correctly, both players get the matching letter tile, but if not, they both lose a letter tile. On a letter hunt space, a player may trade a letter tile with another player. If no trade is made, they can instead answer a trivia question for a letter of their choice, gaining the matching the letter tile if they answer correctly. If a player has gained all the tiles needed to complete their word, they need to move their pawn to their home space. The first player to reach their home space after completing their word wins the game. The game has three different levels of difficulty, and different players can play at different difficulty levels. —user summary
