    Mar 04 '01
    Pros: Smooth game play; fantastic graphics and sound
    Cons: None

    Summary: I love Scrabble. I'm a long-time addict of this ancient and venerable crossword game, which was first released to the American public by Selchow and Righter in the late 1940's. I remember regularly beating my mother, siblings, and grandparents ... read more

  • Scrabtastic!!!

    Jul 11 '04
    Pros: Options, options, options, and fast games (no more waiting for Aunt Bea)
    Cons: None, really

    Summary: Think of it this way: A popular board game, on your computer, with opponents waiting at all times for you to choose to play them at your whim, and they don't take 10 years to put down a word only to get 6 points for the word "case". That is what you get ... read more

  • Learn new words!

    Jan 06 '01
    Pros: a lot of different ways to have fun
    Cons: Maven can cheat!

    Summary: My Grandma taught me to play Scrabble when I was about 8 years old. We played just for fun - it was also a great way for me to learn new words. We also often 'cheated' to make the game go faster!! As I got older, we played more by the rules and the ... read more

  • Great Family game Needs a few improvements

    Nov 24 '00
    Pros: All around family game
    Cons: Could use better graphics and a talking opponent

  • True to the board game

    Nov 07 '00
    Pros: Online gaming free
    Cons: none

    Summary: I've delayed purchasing this game for at least a year. I always seem to forget when I'm in the computer store, because I get distracted by so much other stuff. It has been about ten years since I last played Scrabble, and my recollections were that it ... read more

  • Through out the old Scrabble board game!

    Oct 12 '00
    Pros: Replaces the old board game.
    Cons: Changing the color settings constantly!

    Summary: We were so happy to learn that Scrabble was out in PC version! The old Scrabble board game kept having to be replaced due to the constant playing and bending of the board itself or loss of the letter tiles. Our only dis-appoinment came with the fact that ... read more

  • I Confess--I'm Addicted

    Sep 14 '00
    Pros: fun, easy to use
    Cons: be careful if you choose help with words

    Summary: I grew up playing the board game Scrabble, and it was my family's favorite game. My brother cheated regularly, reading made-up definitions from the dictionary and turning over tiles to use as blanks. It took us a long time to catch on to his antics. ... read more

    Pros: awesome graphics and sound builds vocabulary
    Cons: none

    Summary: I love to sit at the computer on a cold rainy day and play the computer and test my Scrabble skills on the interactive version of Scrabble. With fun sounds effects and awesome graphics it definitely beats the original board game that you set up and ... read more

  • Can Someone Please Wake Me When I Am Finished Losing??

    Aug 14 '00
    Pros: Very helpful tutorials
    Cons: Very boring. Could use some spicing up.

    Summary: In the past few days I have realized that maybe I spend a little too much time here at Epinions. I think I am borderline obsessive. Anyhow, I decided I needed a little change of pace so I blew the dust off my Scrabble CD-ROM and popped that bad ... read more

  • S-C-R-A-B-B-L-E , how many points for that?

    Aug 04 '00
    Pros: great learning and spelling game
    Cons: can take a while to play

    Summary: Maybe I can get more points for S-C-R-A-B-B-L-E if I can get it on the triple word bonus . Scrabble I find is a great game especially for kids still in school in helping them to increase their vocabulary which helps with all their school work . Scrabble ... read more

  • Zygotene?!? What the Hell does that mean?!?

    Jul 26 '00
    Pros: MAVEN, MAVEN, MAVEN
    Cons: None to speak of

    Summary: Recently, I was playing against MAVEN, the computerized opponent for Hasbro's CD-Rom version of Scrabble, maintaining a 123-point lead with only a few scrabble pieces remaining on the virtual board. That's it, I thought. Piece of cake. I ... read more

    Pros: Easy to Learn, Lots of Options and FUN!
    Cons: Distracting Music

    Summary: I love to play Scrabble, but always have a heck of a time finding someone to play a good game. When I saw this game on the shelf at the store, the graphics looked so cool and the price wasn't too bad (about $20), so I decided to give it a try. ... read more
