Iriri is a boardless Scrabble-like game that uses pyramids as letters. The players take turns placing pieces in a boundless grid to form "words." The dictionary of playable words is represented by out-of-play pieces arranged in a circle. Players score one point per piece in every word that includes the new pieces they placed. After each play, pieces may be taken from the dictionary to refill the player's hand and change the set of words.
