HOW TO PLAY SLOGGLE:

◣ Sit down on one of the seats
◣ If you already have a HUD in your inventory, wear it
◣ Accept the HUD you are given (if you are not already wearing one)
◣ Right click on it in your inventory and choose "Add to Worn"
◣ Wait for everyone to wear their HUD and get ready to play
◣ Once everyone is ready, anyone can click "BEGIN" on the game table

AFTER THE TIMER:

◣ Once "BEGIN" is clicked, the 3 minute timer starts (You will see 'Ready...', 'Set..." and GO in chat)
◣ You have 3 minutes to make as many words as you can
◣ The letters on your HUD are used to make words (NOT on the table)
◣ Spell out the word correctly and in order
◣ When your word is fully spelled, click "SUBMIT WORD" on the HUD
◣ If you make a mistake, click "UNDO" on the HUD (top right corner)
◣ If your only mistake was the last letter, you can click it again to de-select it
◣ Only the last letter will allow you to de-select it

OTHER GAME DETAILS:

◣ DO NOT REMOVE THE HUD - doing so will remove you from the game, and wipe your score
◣ DO NOT STAND UP - doing so will remove you from the game, detach your HUD, and wipe your score
◣ If you are done playing, just stand up - I recommend you wait until the Best Of rounds are played
◣ If you sit down during an active round, you cannot join. You will need to stand and resit for the next round.
◣ Stopping play before the Best Of rounds are finished will cause you to lose your stats
◣ When the timer runs out, all valid words are scored
◣ The game will wait for the next round to begin
◣ Click "BEGIN" when all players are ready for the next round
◣ Play continues until you reach the Best Of round limit, or you decide to stop playing
◣ Best Of is set to 3 as the default (3 rounds to play before stats are given)
◣ On the last round, stats are displayed in local chat
◣ The winner is the person with the highest score in points at the end of the Best Of rounds
◣ To change the number of rounds in Best Of, click "MENU" on the table, then "Best Of"
◣ You can select 3, 5, or 10 rounds
◣ After the stats are displayed, clicking "BEGIN" resets scores and rounds, starting the next Best Of rounds

GAME FEATURES:

◣ Customized sounds that can be turned on/off in the HUD
◣ Resize option built into the HUD
◣ Multiple Poses in the seats with height adjust

SLOGGLE DICTIONARY:

◣ Sloggle used to use an in-game dictionary that contains 269,384 words (ENGLISH). It no longer relies on those 384 note cards! It now uses an external web resource to validate all words.
◣ Sloggle comes in ENGLISH only
◣ If you make a foreign word that is spelled the same as an English word (for example: ANGLE = both French & English), it will be valid and scored
◣ If any word you make is not valid according to the external web source, it will NOT be scored
