A fast-paced cooperative word game where spelling is only half the battle.

Announcing Illiterati

The Illiterati are an evil secret organization that has taken over the world. Your job as a member of the League of Librarians is to save the world's books — one word at a time.

Illiterati is a real-time, cooperative word game in which players work together to form words and bind (complete) books. Each round, you'll have 3 minutes to work as you balance two different objectives. On the one hand, your goal is to bind books so that you can win the game. On the other hand, if you have too many unused letters when time runs out, everyone loses.

To make matters worse (or more fun), at the end of each round, a member of the Illiterati comes to attack your hard-earned words, making victory an even more herculean task.

Once everyone has finished 2 books, the team tackles a last book called the" Final Chapter." The Final Chapter must be completed individually by everyone at the same time. If the Illiterati Villain deck runs out before you're able to complete the Final Chapter, everyone loses!
