Fun game May 28, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm a great fan of Scrabble and am enjoying this version; however I do agree that having to play the mini games to add more characters is irritating and some of the words are so strange that I've wondered if my DS has gone wrong!

I am so addicted to this game! You gradually face tougher and tougher players, but I have been unable to get very far with the timed game.
The mini games are also a lot of fun, particularly Puzzeletters.
 Pretty good for passing some time except..... April 25, 2008

The main problem with this game, and it's a big problem, is that there's no multiplayer mode apart from wireless. This means if you are on holiday and you want to, for example, play a game with your wife using the DS - you can't. Unless she has one - which she doesn't. If you only have one DS then you have to play the virtual players. This really does take quite a bit of the fun out of playing a game like Scrabble. Very poor - there's really no reason why they couldn't have included this feature......
Cheating dictionary April 25, 2008

The play is great, the only fault is with the questionable words that the ds allows for the electronic players whilst disallowing some of my "normal" offerings. Also if the electronic player is in-filling with short words, I am sure that the software is not checking all the words made. It only shows one definition on the screen even if two or three words have been created. I tried to use one of the two letter words that had been allowed for my opponent and it chucked it out.
But overall, very addictive, I wouldn't give it back!
 cheating scrabble April 24, 2008

Yes I agree that you need the Collins scabble dictionary, but why not stick to correct English, I would hate a child to see this their spelling would end up atrocious. Clearly much trouble was taken compiling this version but the words are ridiculous or are professional scrabble players complete nerds, they certainly didnt go to my school. Altogether a great disappointment, however despite the weird words my wife can still beat it at tournament level, so for that I am grateful. I would not recommend this version to anyone. Finally when the computer wins you do not see the final word score and it does not add/subtract remaining letters at end of game and as already reported it cheats!!!
