	Description Edit \| History

WYPS is a word game played on a triangular board. The aim of the players is to be the first to connect all three sides of the board. The unique game board allows playing the game in four different sizes. WYPS is a filler on the smallest board and a serious game on the largest board.

WYPS was inspired by the Game of Y. According to the designer, the name comes from it being a Word game based on YPSilon, which is the spelling of the letter Y is some languages.
