About the game
Oh My Word is a board game from Thames & Kosmos, designed by Andrew Lawson and Jack Lawson (2025). It plays 2–6 players in 15 minutes, for ages 10+. BoardGameGeek players rate it 6.3 out of 10 and call it light (1.3 / 5 weight).
"Oh My Word is a real-time, category-based word game that’s perfect for parties and family game nights. To play, draw a letter from the bag, choose a category from the boards laid out on the table, and name a word or term that starts with your letter and fits your category. Cover up the category and then it’s the next player’s turn. But beware! Before each round, a random timer is set, which can expire at any time. The player whose turn it is when the timer goes off receives one of the bad luck tokens, which stand in your way of winning in the end. Think fast, and don’t be left holding the bag!
An easy-to-learn, fast-paced category-based word game
Perfect party game for two to six players ages ten and up
Boisterous fun for friends and family
Variable playing field and original categories keep the gameplay fresh each time
Random timer keeps you on your toes"
