A word game includes displaying a first and a second letter from which players
form an answer word. A winner is determined when an answer word conforming to an
established rule set is submitted. A game-piece dispenser includes a base having
two depressions in a top face located closer to a front edge than to a rear edge
of the base. The depressions have a depth dimensioned to hold a unitary game piece
having an indicium thereon. A game-piece holder having two receptacles with bottom
openings is affixed in sliding relation atop the base and is movable between a
rear position wherein the receptacle openings are in spaced relation from the depressions
and a forward position wherein the receptacle openings are in covering relation
to at least a portion of the depressions for depositing a game piece into each depression.
