Description from the back of the box:

Literati is a new word game that combines obscure words and quotations with your own creative and often hilarious definitions. No genius is required, merely the ability to outwit your opponents. Advance around the board by simply identifying correct definitions and/or tricking your opponents into believing bogus definitions which you have created…"

Literati contains 400 word cards with categories and sample words, including: GENERAL: uxorious – excessively fond of one’s wife; SCIENCE: piblokto – a psychic disturbance seen chiefly among Eskimo women marked by attacks of hysteria and running naked through the snow; FOREIGN: kater (German) – hangover; SLANG: dismal ditty – a song sung by a criminal just before his death at the gallows; and, QUOTE: "...And I don’t like parties of any kind." ~Dick Clark

Game play is similar to Balderdash, and other Fictionary/Dictionary-type games.
