Pros: Smooth game play; fantastic graphics and sound
Cons: None

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 ...

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

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 ...

Pros: fun, fun, fun
Cons: none

Let me start off by saying that I was addicted to this game not long ago, before I discovered Epinions. My husband and I spent endless hours playing this game.

~~~OBJECT~~~

The object of the game is to be the first player with the...

Pros: Very helpful tutorials
Cons: Very boring. Could use some spicing up.

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...

Pros: MAVEN, MAVEN, MAVEN
Cons: None to speak of

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...

Pros: fun, easy to play, great graphics and sound
Cons: can't rearrange letters on tile holder, print hard to see on playing board

Just so you know, Maven is the computer opponent for Hasbro's Scrabble computer game. After looking at, and considering buying the computerized version of Scrabble, I finally did it! It happened to come packaged with some other games in ...

Pros: Fun, easy, great time-killer
Cons: Gets boring after a bit!

This game is intended to be played with two players, like the board game, or you can play it against the computer, who is aptly named, Maven! Let me tell you something about Maven..... she cheats!

I had an unfortunate experience with...

Pros: Incredible vocabulary, improves personal skill, different levels to choose from, quick
Cons: Dictionary is not the official competitive scrabble dictionary

I was pretty curious about this game-- I wondered if the computer would be challenging, or if it would have enough of a vocabulary to allow me to play normally.

It absolutely is and does.

At first it is a little aggravating to play...

Pros: FUN
Cons: I can't stop playing once I start!

I was a bit skeptical about Scrabble on the computer. I love the board game and was sure the software version would be disappointing. When I found a promotional coupon for it on the box of my favorite cereal(Cheerios), I thought, "what the...

Pros: Easy To Use, Just Like the Board Game
Cons: Can't Shuffle the Letters Around Yourself

The CD-ROM version of Scrabble pretty much plays like the standard board game version. You form words crossword style using letter "tiles". Different letters have different point values assigned to them. Generally, the letters that are...

Pros: Builds word skills, addictive fun
Cons: ADDICTIVE

I am a Scrabble lover from way back. Our family was so serious about our Scrabble playing that we bought the Super Deluxe version when I was around 10 years old. It featured a turntable base and had a raised plastic grid that kept the letters from...

Pros: Easy to set up and play.
Cons: none

I was lucky enough to purchase this game at a school bookfair. I loved the board game and only hoped it would be that good. It was Buy one get one free so I only paid $7.50 for this game. What an absolute bargain!

Setting up the game is a...

Pros: Fun, Dictionary, Hint Guide
Cons: Music is annoying, Game runs slow occasionally

I've always loved playing the board game Scrabble, so much in fact, that I received a game as a wedding shower gift. When I found the computer version, I purchased it immediately.

The game can be played with as little as one human player and...

Pros: Nice graphics, music, and built in dictionary
Cons: Playing against a computer not quite the real thing

My mother is a Scrabble nut. There is no denying that she is addicted to those cute little square tiles. Unfortunately, no one in our family enjoys playing the word-based board game quite as much as she does. She became so desperate to play that she...

Pros: Online gaming free
Cons: none

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...

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

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.
...

Pros: Just like the board game
Cons: none

Scrabble was always a popular game in my family. My mother is a whiz at it and no one could ever touch my grandfather, who could always manage to top every game we ever played.

My mom purchased her CD of the scrabble game a few years ago,...

Pros: Easy to find competitors!
Cons: None that I can think of!

The smartest thing Hasbro ever did was to convert this game to the computer. I have loved playing this game for years, but it wasn't always easy to find competitors to pay against. The computer game provides the competition so you can play the game...

Pros: Very close to the board game
Cons: You can get really hooked

I have never been one for computer games, even though I spend most of my free time on the computer.I usually leave the game playing to my husband and my children. Most of the games we own for the computer are children related.

This all changed...

Pros: Great for teaching spelling
Cons: none

I purchased Scrabble just over a three months ago and absolutely love it! I was a little skeptical at first about playing a "board game" on my pc but, I was pleasantly surprised.
This is the perfect game to have for the young and young at...

Pros: a lot of different ways to have fun
Cons: Maven can cheat!

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...

Pros: Its great!
Cons: Internet setup instructions did not work for me!

If you like to play the game scrabble, you will love playing this version on your computer. You can play by yourself against the computer or you can go on line to MSN gaming zone and find new friends to play with. If you are a beginner to this game I...

Pros: easy to learn and fun to play
Cons: difficult for younger children

Scrabble was a Christmas present for my wife last year. It was one of the best presents for the whole family.

When we were younger, we spent many hours playing Scrabble on the board and looking up words in the scrabble dictionary. This...

Pros: Read The Review : )
Cons: None

I have loved the game of Scrabble since I first learned to spell. But more often than not, I could never find anyone that wanted to play with me.

Now that I am an adult, I can play Scrabble any time I please thanks to the wonderful birthday...

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

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....

Pros: awesome graphics and sound builds vocabulary
Cons: none

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...

Pros: Challenging game with several different playing skill levels
Cons: Clumsy to start up, doesn't operate in a normal resizeable window

The computer will give you as tough a game as you can handle, but it's needlessly clumsy and inconvenient to run.

For starters, the game will only run in 256 color mode. Most modern computers with at least an adequate video adaptor will be set...

Pros: Fun to play
Cons: older videos, not the best

We all know and most likely love scrabble. Its an old time favorite! Now imagine having it on you computer! NO more pieces to lose, no more adding up points. The scrabble CD i got very cheap at some pharmacy is a bit older so the video isnt great....

Pros: So easy to learn, easy to adjust to suit various levels of player
Cons: Can't think of ANY

This was a gift to me put became a firm favorite with the whole family quickly. Truly a wonderful experience as either a solo player or in contest with others. Very easy to learn - so similar to board game - with fun graphics and sound effects. I...

Pros: Simple, user friendly, FUN!
Cons: Very few

This isn't my game. My friend Kathy owns it, and she initiates the games. To play with someone who owns the CD, all you have to do is download (very quick) the Hasbro software so that your computer can read the files sent.
Here's how it works:...

Pros: Replaces the old board game.
Cons: Changing the color settings constantly!

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...

Pros: fast, easy, challenging, fun
Cons: sometimes the turns get lost

EVERYDAY!!!

We decided to go halves and buy the software at work one day a couple of months ago, and it soon traveled through the network and everyone was playing it. It is great because it doesn't take too long to play (you don't get in too...

Pros: Its easy to learn and very fun to play
Cons: Its addicting! Watch out!

I bought the game Scrabble almost a year ago. Its very addicting! I only played the board game twice in my life, but when I saw the cd rom game I thought I would buy it. I really enjoy it. I've had it almost a year now, and I still play it once or...

Pros: Mulitplayer Mode
Cons: Nothing special

You should expect something special from a company that makes a board game on software. There should be a reason for wanting to clog your hard drive with a game that you can get for next to nothing. Unfortunately the Scrabble software game doens't offer...

Pros: great learning and spelling game
Cons: can take a while to play

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...

Pros: entertaining, interactive
Cons: addicting

We received this as a present but we are board game Scrabble players from way back.
I truly enjoy the Interactive Scrabble. We have version 2. It contains 11 Scrabble Mini game variations. It is lots of fun to be able to play other people on the...

Pros: All around family game
Cons: Could use better graphics and a talking opponent

I always enjoyed playing Scrabble the boardgame so I chose this game over the other games. It was one I could play with my daughter, mother or friends. The graphics are pretty good, however, I think a few changes could make the game even better. First...
