Abstract

The rules of our proposed games are very simple. Two persons alternately draw letter titles until one of them is first able to form a word and wins. To avoid arguments, we supply for each game its own dictionary of allowed words. To make the games more interesting, we have certain symmetry demands on dictionary word lists and will call such lists configurations.
