I'm sure you have seen the obvious and realised what the special rule for this type of game is ... you can only have 3-letter words on the board. You can try all sorts of sub-versions ... 2 letters only is a bit weird (!) 4-letters is OK, we found that anything above that is tricky. One good version is to allow only 3,5,7,9 .. odd- numbered letter words like toc, sownd or cwynfan. Or only even ones like ac, tlws and modryb. That works fine.
But let's see what happened later on in this particular game .....
C
P A M
M
If you start with two crossed words like those, the next player can't go anywhere without making a 2-letter word or worse .... for example ...
C
P A M
M A N
Besides his chosen word, MAN, he's incidentally made MA as well. Not allowed.
In general though, the 3-letter game flows along pretty well and certainly encourages you to swot up on the dinky Welsh words.
Now a few questions ...
[a] What letters do the two blanks stand for ?
[b] If you had CRAPTEM what would be your best play ?
[c] Could you reach any of the other triple-word squares on this board ?
Now we have Accu with " Adain Adain" .....
