2.0 out of 5 stars You would think Hasbro would give SCRABBLE more respect., February 20, 2006

By	Walter O'Brien "concretewo" (Clinton, NJ USA) - See all my reviews

Or maybe it's the Macintosh they don't respect. Having two older versions of Scrabble for the old Mac system 9 I've been waiting many years for an update for Mac OS X. I kept checking the Hasbro Scrabble website, even the website for the European rights owner for Scrabble. For Windows, yes, but no Scrabble for Mac OS X. Finally I see this group package, although according to the MacSoft website this doesn't even exist. Took a chance. It has Risk also, a great game, and Monopoly! It crashes every time I try to load it. Nice work, Hasbro. Guess I'll have to keep system 9 around another decade or so. And will keep using iConquer to play world domination in the meantime.

1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't run on newer versions of OS X!, April 14, 2006

By	Mianla (Waterford, MI USA) - See all my reviews

Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars 

I'm running 10.4.5 on a speedy iMac G5 with 4 times the recommended RAM for this game and it does not function. As soon as I log in to play, it crashes and closes.

Adding to my frustration, there is absolutely no helpful support on the MacSoft website.

When time allows I'll update my OS like the latest reviewer noted and perhaps that will be my ticket to making this game run (howerver, I'm not holding my breath) until then I'll stick with my lo-tech board game.

2.0 out of 5 stars kbaxt, April 16, 2006

By	Ralph Baxter (CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars 

Tried running Scrabble on my new IMAC. Just crashes and freezes.
No help from MacSoft. They advised that this version was adapted from the older PC version.
