~A word game that makes you think fast and act faster~
A deck of 100 cards, face down, equally between two to four players, the optimum number of people to a game. Each card corresponds to a letter and a score. You have to shout out words at rapid-fire speed from the letters placed before you – before the other players can. Use your brain to string the letters into words and use your voice to claim them! Pitting player against player on the basis of letters and language, Fletter is the ideal game for anyone who loves words, or a spellbinding dose of friendly competition.
The words claimed by you will then translate into the number of points you’ve made. And what’s the point of the point system if not to separate the winners from the losers? It is educational without trying too hard to be. Also, it's a quick game, it sharpens your reflexes. It also gets you pumped up, gets your adrenaline going. And, above all, it's just plain, good, easy fun. Kids, nowadays, need board games more than ever. As the digital world takes over the lives of children, board game will become their respite from the glare of screens.

So, even though they might need a little prodding, yes, children can be attracted to a game like this.
