Verba Remota
Verba Remota
Lyla Cerulli and Magistra PC have joined forces to bring you Verba Remota! Using PlayingCards.io, the two Latinists have made the amazing game, Verba, playable on the web. To make a Room of your own, download this file to upload it to PlayingCards.io. See the slides for a walk through on how to create your own room.
Nota bene: The file has been updated on Nov. 27th. The update includes bigger cards that are easier to read and recall buttons to reset the game.
Scrabble
Scrabble
With the assistance of a student, Magistra PC has made an online version of Latin Scrabble. It's not perfect, but it's a start.
How it works:
Make a copy of the board [Click here]
Go to the edit history and name the current version history "Board Reset" for an easy reset once a game is complete.
Share the board with the intended players.
Assign one person to be the letter picker. This can be a player or spectator. Use the Scrabble Bag to spin to see what letters each player will have. After a letter is chosen hit the "x" below the letter to remove it from the bag.
Drag and drop the tiles as they are given to players.
There is table that lists the letters, their point value, how many, and how frequent the word appears in the Latin language. [citation coming soon]
See this video for an explanation on how the board and bag work together.
