Very basic remake of the classic game

Scrabble is a very basic remake of the word-based board game. Unfortunately, it's not an improvement on the original.

Top Recommended Alternative

Scrabble offers the same features as the actual board game. It provides you with your tiles, a list of the words you've played and your score. It also gives you a little bit of information about the scoring system and how many tiles are left. If you get stuck, you'll be able to swap your tiles out, but apart from this, Scrabble offers almost nothing.

The game acts entirely as you would expect. You can play in single-player mode, just for practice. or set up a multiplayer mode via Microsoft DirectPlay. Unfortunately, Scrabble's not much to look at, and provides the players with nothing more than a board and a scorekeeping facility. It doesn't let you know if your words are valid, there are no fun extras, and there isn't even a built-in dictionary where you can check for yourself.

If you're looking for a replacement for a Scrabble board, Scrabble will fit the bill. If you're looking for a Scrabble app, however, you should stay away from this particular version.

    Superb for FREE. This is absolutely brilliant for free. I have the paid versions, but they run out of support after a year. This does nearly everything the official version does, and it seems to have a better database of words. Allows me to play against others with the game installed on their PCs, but I can't seem to find any strangers on public server unfortunately. Run it from Zip file or you will get errors. Tried on both vista and windows 7. Pros: That it a quality game for free Cons: Multiplayer online support
