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 grew bored with it as a child. But I like it now. I don't think Scrabble needs a review, but just in case: this is a great game. I like it more as an adult. No fun.
A scoreboard to maintain the player scores. More number of alphabet pieces.2. Would make an excellent gift set.I would have liked :1. 3. Scrabble is a very popular game and there is very little that I can add as review on the game. However, this scrabble set is very nice. The letters are on one side of the piece, they could have been punched on both side of the pieces.
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. And yes, it is educational and encourages literacy. This is the no frills version: the board doesn't revolve lazy Susan style and the tile bag is just made of plastic. This set hasn't changed a bit from the version I played as a kid. We were playing a lot of the Scrabble beta app on Facebook, but were getting tired of all the bugs. My wife and our friends have been huge Scrabble fans from way back. Plus, a good old-fashioned face to face game can't be beat. Other than that, the game materials are high quality.
Still, perfectly manageable. Functional and inexpensive. It's Scrabble. How can you go wrong.This is the classic board, with simple racks and a flat board. 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.
