Libretto

A pointless word game

You've played other word games

This one is different


As in other games, you form words from tiles. But in Libretto, each player has their own color.

Play words offensively or defensively, anywhere on the board. You don't need to play connected words.

You win by making a path of words between the left and right sides of the board, not by scoring points.

What our players are saying

"For the first time in 40 years I've been blown away by a word game besides Scrabble. I love strategy games, and the depth of strategic thinking available in Libretto compares to, if not surpasses, Scrabble. Libretto presents a wonderful, exciting and completely new experience for word-gamers!"

Joe Edley, three-time National SCRABBLE® Champion
and coauthor of Everything SCRABBLE

"I love playing Libretto. It has a beautiful feel to it, and poses challenges quite exhilarating. Traditional word games may soon have to take a back seat."

Jerry Lerman, National Scrabble Master

"Libretto is deceptively simple. Play it once and you'll realize that it's similar to word games you already know, but not. Play it again, and you'll be hooked by its labyrinthine complexity. This addictive game keeps me up past my bedtime more often than I care to admit!"
