I love this game but I wish I'd gotten the deluxe version with the plastic grid gameboard.
And, being the youngest by many years, it was also a game I could never win. I don't think Scrabble needs a review, but just in case: this is a great game. But I like it now. No fun. I like it more as an adult. I grew bored with it as a child.
More number of alphabet pieces.2. 3. Scrabble is a very popular game and there is very little that I can add as review on the game. The letters are on one side of the piece, they could have been punched on both side of the pieces. A scoreboard to maintain the player scores. However, this scrabble set is very nice. Would make an excellent gift set.I would have liked :1.
As for game play, if you happen to be that rare person who has never played Scrabble, it is a classic board game and a ton of fun. This is the no frills version: the board doesn't revolve lazy Susan style and the tile bag is just made of plastic. Other than that, the game materials are high quality. My wife and our friends have been huge Scrabble fans from way back. And yes, it is educational and encourages literacy. Plus, a good old-fashioned face to face game can't be beat. We were playing a lot of the Scrabble beta app on Facebook, but were getting tired of all the bugs. This set hasn't changed a bit from the version I played as a kid.
The only real annoyance is that the tiles can get skewed/disorganized on the board while you're playing since they don't have the raised grooves that the deluxe boards do. Functional and inexpensive. Still, perfectly manageable. It's Scrabble. How can you go wrong.This is the classic board, with simple racks and a flat board.
