Star Poker

The objective of Star Poker is to create poker hands to score points and the player with the highest score wins. This game is for between 2-7 players and ages 8+.

Each turn, players place a tile onto one of the seven sides of the board and continue until someone has scored. To score, players need to make a poker hand. Once there are no more tiles to draw and all the tiles in each player's hands have been used up, whoever has the most points wins.

Word Poker

The objective of Word Poker is, with a combination of your own cards and the tables, to create the highest scoring word. This game is for more than 2 people and ages 12+.

Letter cards replace playing cards in this game, each letter having its individual score value assigned on the card. Players need to form a word that creates the highest amount of points, using a combination of the cards in their hand and the table. During betting rounds, players can bet on how strong they believe their word to be in order to win the pot of chips.
