Check Out the Library's: Backwords

Grab some friends and put your brain in reverse as you try and guess the words to win the game. Problem is, the words are... backwards!

Backwords is the challenging word game with an added twist: Players race against the clock to correctly and quickly pronounce words from "Backwords" to "Forwords". The more you answer, the closer you get to the finish...

But nothing's ever that straight forward in Backwords! If you answer a "Starword", you get a chance at a bonus turn, which you can either use to race ahead, or strategically pull another player of your choice backwards.
