Product Description

Amazon.com

After all these years, it's still hard to get a triple word score, the tiles are still made of wood, and there's only one "X" in the whole box. The game of Scrabble has sparked feuds and a near-cult following. All the fuss is over a spelling game that hasn't had an upgrade in 50 years. It takes a little luck and a lot of skill to make high-scoring words out of seven little letters, sometimes with an overabundance of vowels and letters that don't go together--sometimes there's Q without U. Two to four players battle it out on the board, and while some players might be proud of impressive words ("I spelled gestalt!"), skilled players know how to use the premium letter and word squares on the 225-square board to their best advantage. This crossword game has strict rules (no names, no slang) and comes with a warning label: "Choose a dictionary first to avoid any ugly word disputes." --Lynne Sampson

I'm guessing you didn't come here for a review of the game Scrabble itself, unless you've been living on another planet for the last century. Scrabble is great, always one of my favorites, and a highly recommended game for literally everyone. With that said, this is the version you'll buy if you just want a cheap, simple, low budget type to give to your kids or to give as a gift or award for something. There's nothing terrible about it, but there's nothing great there either. The board is flimsy, the tiles don't always match each other, and the material is simply cheap. It will get the job done just fine, but you're getting what you pay for here.

5.0 out of 5 stars great game, but one complaint... October 23, 1999
By A Customer

Durability: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
I love Scrabble and bought this item to replace an older set. I'd give it five stars, and it probably should still get five since the game is the same, but.... Here are my aesthetic 'issues' with this newer release of the flat board and wood tile version:

1) the playing area is not centered in the folding board; very displeasing

2) the tiles are made of lighter wood (pine instead of oak? I don't know my woods, but this one is light)

3) the tile trays are less rounded and more squared-off in profile (yes, this is very picky)

This game mas previously been produced by both Milton-Bradley and Shelchow & Righter, and both did a better job than Hasbro with this one. Consider the small travel version with a plastic grid and small, thick wood tiles -- even for home use, that's how disappointing this one is.

the board will not lay flat and this presents a real inconvenience. otherwise the game is wonderful and stimulating to the mind. As I said however, am disenchanted with the board construction.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best games ever invented June 28, 2000
By A Customer
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
Scrabble is one of the best, most challenging games invented. Up to four players choose seven letter tiles each, and they must use them to produce words that connect with other tiles already on the board to form horizontal and vertically arranged words -- like a crossword puzzle. Sound easy to play? It is. But it's not easy to master.

I grew up playing this game, and now that my children are learning to read they are being introduced to the game.

The only complaint I've heard about the game is that it can take a while to finish. That aside, this is an excellent game -- it makes players think not only about what words they can make with their letters, but about game strategy as well. That is, how to best use their letters to maximize their own score while providing as few opportunities for opponents to build.

A great game for building critical thinking and spelling and vocabulary skills.

5 stars all the way!

What a game!

Besides Scrabble, how many other board (or is it bored?) games can boast these qualities?

- It's entertaining. No matter how many times you play, you will never, ever play the same game twice.

- It's educational. You improve in the game by improving your vocabulary. What other game will cause your kids to grab for a dictionary with enthusiasm?

- It's not flashy or made of grody plastic. Nope, Scrabble's got a board and nice little wooden pews to hold the little wooden tiles.

- It involves strategy and chance. Winning Scrabble gives some serious boasting rights compared to other board games such as Life, where a lot depends on blind luck. Yet chance does play a role in Scrabble, because which letters you draw determines how your game will proceed.

All in all, I can not think of another board game other than chess, checkers and a few other classics, that I have actively played as many times or with as much enjoyment as Scrabble. My mother would be proud to hear me say it, too.

Buy this game. Force your kids to play. Don't let them win. You'll be surprised when they eventually beat you, and they'll thank you for it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Scrabble is the ultimate board game! April 17, 2002
By A Customer
Durability: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
Scrabble is the ultimate board game. In the game (for 1-4 players), you try to get the highest score by forming crosswords of the highest possible values. When it is your turn, you have to put down a word on the board, which connects with a word that is already on the board. You get points by taking advantage of the letter values, as well as premium squares which can double or triple the letter values, or double or triple the word value! This game has given me hours of fun, and I have learned many new words in the meantime.

What I don't like about the Standard version of Scrabble is that my tiles always seem to slide out of place and create a mess. If your willing to pay a little more, you should check out the Deluxe version of Scrabble which includes a raised grid, in which your tiles easily fit into, and a special bag which, makes the storage of tiles easy, and makes drawing tiles easier too. I personally love the Deluxe version, but the Standard version of Scrabble is still good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun for everyone! February 7, 2005
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
This game is so much fun! Even my mom who hates to play games with me, will play this game! I like this game because everyone can play it! Fun and educational at the same time as you learn to build words and you can even use it to show how to use a word and grow from it. I think this game is worth the money they charge. My only regret is that I didn't get one with a turn table luckily my mom had one from the 70's and we use it. My advise buy this game!
