Where We Are Today
Word-Sport™ is about three years into its development. The word tiles are yet to be made. We’re also seeking a company to design and produce the innovative Gamming Clock. The packaging is underway, but the game is not available for sale. Just read the histories of Trivial Pursuit®, Scrabble® and Monopoly®. You’ll see that the great games that endure take time to develop and catch on. We trust that Word-Sport™ will join the ranks. Please be patient.
Let The Tournaments Begin!
We went on the road to play test Word-Sport™ at game conventions and at a college prep. high school. See our Tournaments & Conventions section for test results. The game is well received by those interested in word games. Like Scrabble® Word-Sport has the built in elements of skill and luck of the draw, but adds a new dimension…speed! Word-sport™ also has the advantage over every other game in that it can determine a winner in just two to three minutes…with multiple ways to score points. In tournament play, win times are registered to the hundredths of a second. Using the Zero® Truss display, we'll have a unique overhead video camera presentation similar to TV poker games (e.g. Texas Hold'em) so spectators can see the action on the championship table. Scrabble® determines who is best with words, Word-Sport™ determines who is fastest!
Our next play test venue will be in some local coffee houses as we plan on launching our Coffee House Competition™ tournament format. Recognition and prizes will be awarded as incentives to participation. The Competitions will originate in the tri-county area of Michigan (Oakland, Macomb and Wayne).
