“Say It to Play It!”

A quick-thinking, fast-paced card game where Phonics meets fun!

Created and approved by teachers, Tricky Takedown makes learning those pesky ‘Tricky Words’  (the ones that don’t play by the Phonics rules) exciting, engaging and full of surprises.

Designed for ages 4+, this game helps children learn, retain and recall Phase 2 and 3 'Tricky Words' while developing reading confidence, word recognition and turn-taking skills.

Players race to match 'Tricky Words', colours or play Power Cards to outsmart their opponents. It’s quick to learn, endlessly replayable and guaranteed to bring laughter to classrooms, interventions and family game nights alike.

Who will be the first to clear their hand and become the 'Tricky Word Champion'?
