Forgot about blanks.

Yeah, I forgot that there were blanks in Scrabble.

I am thinking to add a simple rule which says you have to spell different words. You can't spell the same word over and over - makes it much more challenging and really about spelling.

Plus, I did want to add a Scrabble-like rule for spelling words with the harder letters, like a 'z'.

And blanks are wild?

**And one more rule: Along the way of the adventure, the heroes will encounter situations which require a correct spelling. They reach a BRDGE. Oh no! They can't cross it - it's not quite right. A craftsman is standing there, in shame, sad that his beautiful BRDGE didn't quite come out as planned. So the heroes can cough up an i, hand it over, he completes the creation.

Something like that. Maybe even scrambled words, like the mispelling challenge mentioned below. So, the Garblers from beyond are really going through the countryside, stealing vowels, consonants, and mucking everything up! The heroes have to sort it out in more ways than one! (I'll include this in the next draft.)
