 Great learning tool disguised as Fun! Nov 19, 2008
Scrabble has been a family favorite for generations. Using this fun tool to teach young learners to think creativity and master spelling is the key to capturing the concept of "learning can be fun"

 This game is great, but Hasbros is evilNov 11, 2008
Scrabble is such a great game and facebook made it popular online.
But Hasbro decided to shutdown Scrabulous on facebook and failed to maintain a playable online version.
I am sorry Hasbro, but I have to let people know how selfish you are.
This game is great, and it is more exciting online---and Hasbro just ruined it.
For people who don't know what Hasbro did. Google online and read the story.
If you still want to support Hasbro, then go ahead.
For me, i will never spend a single penny on Hasbro games from now on...

 Game Accessories Not ThereOct 02, 2008
When I was a kid, I had a scrabble game which included nice little score boards. But I bought this game and there are no score boards. Though playing scrabble is fun I hate maintaining score on a piece of paper. Go find another set which has scoreboards in it. enjoy!
I Never Thought a Dictionary Would Sit on My Game ShelfSep 14, 2008
My mom gave me this game (as I often have game nights with my siblings (& friends) at my apartment.) Her comment, "You are going to be an English teacher, you can make this fun."
So I offered the game (vaguely remembering it from childhood)to my 13 & 7 year old brothers, and 15 & 11 year old sisters. I was surprised how much they (and myself) loved it! My biggest surprise was that my brother (who is into skateboards & electric guitars) now asks for this or Phase 10 exclusively when he comes over.
Game Play:
This game is for 2-4 players. To start off each player chooses 1 tile. The person with a tile closest to "A" gets to start.
Each player starts the game with 7 letter tiles. The first player tries to make a word over the middle "star" tile on the board. Once the first word is made all other words must be made off of existing words.
This plays like a crossword puzzle, anywhere letters meet an (existing) word must be.
I strongly suggest purchasing a printed dictionary, we use a "collegiate one", and agreeing on it before game play. Anything not in this book doesn't count.
We have, so many times, had a lot of fun with this game. The other great aspect is the educational value that comes with the game. Did you know the only 2-letter x words are "xi" (a letter of the Greek alphabet) and "xu" (a Vietnamese coin roughly equivalent to a penny). How about the word "zooty" (a flashy dresser) or "wynn" (a letter of the Old English alphabet still in existence in collegiate uses.)
Also, even my 7 year old brother could get a fair amount of points with "pig" "what" and "the." He had just as much fun as anyone else and actually didn't lag too far behind in points. It's more about strategy than vocabulary.
We, including my friends and me, always have a great time playing this game and have learned a lot of words (unintentionally from game play.) I never thought I would see my brother flipping through the dictionary (exclaiming "I'm sure waxzot is a word... lol)... I intend to integrate this game into my classroom in the future.
Pros:
*Any age (8+) can play
*Educational & fun (how many games can really say that?)
*Interactive
Cons:
*It's hard to keep the tiles on the board after there are 20 or better... I am going to buy Super Scrabble (that has raised corners to keep the tiles in place)
*Also it would be nice to have more tiles and a larger board (which Super Scrabble does)
 Great vocabulary builder!Aug 03, 2008
Scrabble is a favorite game with my family. My parents played with us when we were young. My 8 siblings and I continue to play when we're together - we even play online. It's educational and fun too!
