Abstract
A reflective word game is provided in which letter tiles placed into a game plate by a player will simultaneously form both a real word and a reciprocal image word that is reflected in either one or two adjacent mirrors. A challenger player must make up a matching word by placing letter tiles into the game plate which will also be reflected in either one or two adjacent mirrors. The scoring values of the letters making up the words are added up and are cumulative, whereby the player with the highest score at the end of the game is the winner.
