Scrabble game is fun, but

This edition of Scrabble is fun, but it is more limited than others I've used. There are contradictions, too. For example, the game recognizes some foreign language terms, but not others. I find its dictionary limited and the words you use to play the game are limited to those in the game's dictionary. It is fun to play and incorporates some animations, which adds to its value.

If you are running Windows Vista and you love Scrabble this is a great buy. NOT FOR XP.

The game itself is just PRETTY GOOD.

Notable features:

HINTS: Gives you clues for a good play, every time you press the button until the word and coordinates is given. Feature can be disabled.

Word Suggestions: Shows you the best 10 plays and will play them for you if you click the choice

Dictionary: You can look up words during the game. No need to struggle flipping pages or carry around a heavy book.

Word Lister: List all possible words from you rack or a specified (you can input) anagram, constanant and vowel dump (when you have too many of the same letter or smae type of letter), list of words with "Q without a U"

Rack sort: Alphabetically, Vowels first, Descending or Ascending value, shuffle

Six levels of Difficulty: Novice (very easy) to Champion (Perfect)

Display options: Choose from 11 backgrounds, 3 game boards, a slant or straight board, dark or light tiles

Player Records: keeps player profiles including highest scored game, average score, number of games won and lost, and best play

Mini-games: 11 different single player games with different objectives for developing your scrabble skills

Custom dictionaries: You can create custom dictionaries to add your own words

Pros:
- Very Fast play, no lag
- Automatic scoring
- Automatic challenge and penalty (can be disabled)
- Pick your own tiles or let the computer pick for you
- Can be played online
- Satisfiable Graphics
- Never freezes
- Save up to 10 games
- Tournament mode

Cons:
- Must run full screen to play: You can't play the game and do something else on the PC. You'll have to press the Windows key. There is no minimize button.
- Only one rack can be shown at a time, make game time a little slow when playing with friends

Overall, its a pretty good game. Not only lets you play but teaches you how to improve your playing. I play it everyday.

The best Scrabble game yet!

Excellent.

Only down-side, it runs a little slow unless you have quite a fast computer.

Using the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary has been very helpful with the first game I purchased. However, I have recently ordered two more and as of this date, the dictionaries have not arrived.

Enjoy playing against the computer. Drawback: The screen will suddenly black out for no reason and you have to scroll all over the screen to see the game again. This is very frustrating, esp in the middle of a game.

TERRIFIC GAME, TRUE FUN, EDUCATIONAL, AND CHALLENGING. THE VARIED LEVELS
TO PLAY THE GAME AT VERSUS ITSELF, ARE A CONSTANT TEST OF ONE'S GRAY MATTER.
YOU CHOOSE HOW HARD OR EASY YOU WANT THE GAMES TO BE. TRUE FUN.

Warning! Do not buy this game.

This is a total waste of money. Game has defects and will not work well on XP. Empire is no help and their forums are a joke "Help, I have a black screen" "I know of no solution at this time." It is also cd dependant to run, meaning you have to lug a cd around with you if you want to play the game (when it will play). After a day of frustration trying to get this thing to work, the game ended up in the trash. That toss into the trash was the most fun I got out of the game!

I have always been a scrabble fan. This computer game gave me the upper hand in a lot of the "competition" rounds with my mother :). So for Christmas, I got her one too! She's addicted already and it's gonna be a challenge to try to outword her now for sure!
