Maxim'Up! Hasbro – Build and Steal Words | Ages 8+

🔤  Do you love word games, but want a bit more action and interaction? With Maxim'Up! from Hasbro Gaming, you build words with letter tiles while your opponents can change, take over, or even completely hijack your words! 😄🔤

The game is reminiscent of a combination of Scrabble and Boggle, but adds a surprising gameplay element: words can literally be stacked on top of each other.

🧩 How do you play?

Players use their letter tiles to build words and connect them to create a kind of crossword puzzle.

But pay close attention! Your opponents can change your words by placing their own letters on top of yours. There can even be up to 5 layers stacked on top of each other.

Points are only calculated at the very end. This means the score can change until the last turn, and everyone still has a chance to win. 🏆

🌟 What does it stimulate/practice in your child?

🔤 Language skills – playing with letters and words

🧠 Vocabulary – discovering new words and using existing words

🎯 Strategic thinking – thinking about where you can best place your letters

👀 Spatial awareness – taking different layers and combinations into account

🤝 Social interaction – challenging each other, taking over words, and playing tactically

🔥 Stealing words makes it exciting!

What makes Maxim'Up! special is that no word is completely safe. A word that your opponent has carefully built can suddenly change in the next turn because letters are placed on top of it.

Because the final points are only counted at the end, the winner can change until the very last moment. This creates surprising and exciting moments in the game!
