How to prepare and play

  1. Enter at least 16 different words or short phrases. Use more than 16 if you want cards to contain different selections as well as different layouts.
  2. Keep the 4×4 grid selected. All 16 squares are playable; there is no single centre square to mark free.
  3. Download the PDF and give each player a card. Copy your word list for the caller, or cut the words into slips and draw them from a bowl.
  4. Call one word at a time. Players mark matching squares. Agree before playing whether four in a row, column or diagonal wins; use all 16 squares for a longer game.

Print a test page on A4 or US Letter before printing the full set. For larger groups, packs of 50, 100 or 200 cards are available in the generator.
