	Description Edit \| History

Option is a Scrabble-like game where players form words crossword-style to score points. The twist is that instead of tiles the players use prisms that have letters on two sides in two different colors (bonus points are scored for making a word with all one color). Players can also flip letters already on the board in order to make new words.
