A duel of words without mercy!
Count Guy de Jarnac was a French nobleman who lived in the 16th century. It was a time of honour and he was forced to fight many duels. A master swordsman, he developed a particular lunge which disabled his opponents. A "Coup de Jarnac" is now a common French term used to describe a "dirty trick".
Jarnac is a fast-paced game were players create and modify words on the gameboard. But beware! Your opponent can deliver a Coup de jarnac and steal your word. The more words you create, the more difficult it becomes.
