About the game
Cards with letters in six colors, devils and towers are laid out upside down on the board. You move wooden blocks with 7 holes around the board looking for 6 letters in your color. When you come upon one you place a peg with that letter into your block. Anytime you land on a card you turn it over. You can move through cards that are letters that you have in your block. You can pick up a devil peg voluntarily by landing on the Devil space in the middle of the board or have one forced on you by landing on a devil card. Devil pegs allow you movement bonuses and allow you to land on an opponent. You then give the opponent your devil peg and if you receive 2 they fly away taking two letter pegs with them. Winner is the person who collects 6 letter pegs while having no Devil pegs.
