I Know More Español Than You! (Beginner Level)

It’s simple: play with your friends, complete the activities, and be the first one to collect the 7 letter tokens to form the word E-S-P-A-Ñ-O-L. If successful, you will earn the bragging rights for the day: Take a selfie with the letter tokens in any creative way you want (like the people in the box) and post it to your social media with the message “I know more ESPAÑOL than… _!” plus the names of your opponents.

The game consists of several consecutive rounds of Spanish activities from the game deck. The activity category for each round is selected by chance using the poker deck. Individual players win a round and collect a letter token when they successfully complete the corresponding activity. Some luck will also be a factor to win.
