For two to four players, Word Sweep is the first board game to feature official content from America’s leading language reference publisher, Merriam-Webster. To play, one player reads a card that contains three definitions of words that appear consecutively in the dictionary. Another player tries to guess all three to make a “Word Sweep” before the timer runs out. If the “Word Sweep” isn’t solved completely, opponents can “steal” the remaining words. The more words guessed correctly, the faster players advance around the board. Word Sweep was co-invented by Intellinitiative and Steve Smith, a former middle school teacher from the Boston area who is an annual participant in the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament hosted by New York Times crossword puzzle editor, Will Shortz. The tournament is the subject of the 2006 movie "Wordplay." The game received the 2007 Teachers’ Choice Award, the 2006 Parents' Choice Recommended Award and the 2006 National Parenting Center Seal of Approval. Launch date: August 2006. (See Review)

Word Sweep Junior! is a fun, vocabulary-building word game for the entire family. The game is clever, yet easy to play. Players simply identify words that appear consecutively in Merriam-Webster’s Elementary Dictionary and guess correctly to make a “Word Sweep!” They must keep an eye out for high-stakes “Super Word Sweeps” that allow players to earn double points, and “Group Word Sweeps” that permit collaborative word identification. The original and junior versions of Word Sweep! “are the only board games endorsed by leading dictionary publisher Merriam-Webster,” Clay Siegert of Intellinitiative told TDmonthly. Launch date: August 2007.
