In Quarrel, the aim of the game is to take all the territory from the other players (up to four). To do this, the player 'invades' neighboring territory and then must make a higher-scoring word than his or her opponent. Opponents include Dwayne, Caprice, Biff, Troy, Damien, Malik, Rex, Helena, and Kali. Dwayne is the easiest and Kali is the hardest. [citation needed]
As with other word games, letters have individual scores. These range from 1 to 15, and value is based on commonality in spoken-word communications rather than written-word communications.[citation needed]
Letter scores are as follows:[citation needed]
