A board game for enhancing the spelling skills of each of several players of different ages. The board game comprises a board with a start position, a finish position, with a lengthy path defined by discrete spaces extending therebetween in a serpentine fashion. The path also includes intersecting circles and a by pass leg. Each player receives a game pawn, or marker, and advances same along the spaces on the pathway by rolling six dice, with a different letter on each face. The extent of movement is governed by the number of letters in each word that the player builds from letters on the exposed faces of the dice, augmented by an element of chance introduced by Pick-a-Card cards and/or Keep-a-Letter for Life cards. The player receives one of these cards when his pawn lands on a designated space in the pathway. Additionally, movement controlling spaces in the path come into play when a pawn lands directly on one of these spaces. The board game thus combines vocabulary skills, good luck, and strategic planning, to maintain the interest of each player over an extended period of time.
