Like the original Boggle, the cubes are shaken in their container with its lid on. The cubes are settled into a grid. The lid is removed and the timer is started. Players race to find words within the grid and write them down. The letters of each word must be adjacent, either diagonally or orthogonally. When time has expired, players compare words and score for each original word based on its length.

Super Big Boggle contains thirty six cubes in a six-by-six grid. There is 1 blank cube which acts as a block and must be worked around. The timer is four minutes long instead of three. And words must be a minimum of 4 letters instead of 3 (like standard Boggle).
