Summary: Beware - Can be ADDICTIVE!!
Comment: I LOVE Scrabble! I have had as many as 6 different types of the game - travel editions to deluxe and I really love the computerized version with a handy embedded dictionary and the ability to play alone or with a friend or with a computerized opponent of the level you choose! I have been broadening my skills and vocabulary with every game! I highly recommend this game for word lovers - this Mac version is superb. I had an older one that I liked - but this one is the cat's pajamas!

Summary: Compared To What ???
Comment: I'm a little confused by reviews here that unfavorably compare this Mac version of Scrabble to other Scrabble games. I personally find this to be an excellent rendition of the classic word game. My wife has two PC versions of Scrabble and I like this one better than both of them. I suppose it may be all in what you get used to. This one works perfectly well on my Macbook and I really, really like it !

Summary: What Great Fun
Comment: I love words games and of course, Scrabble is the King of word games. I love the different levels of opponent. Most of all I like playing Scrabble when I feel like it, by myself.

Summary: It cheats!
Comment: This game is well done, fun, and addictive, BUT it cheats. There are a small number of words in its dictionary that do not appear in the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary (4th edition). It beat me tonight (barely) by using GADJO. If you look this up in the OSPD4, it isn't there. If you look it up in its own online version, it's there, but with "Definition not available". If you look it up in Google, it's a Barcelona-based gypsy-ska group, which gets its name from the Roma word for non-Romanji people. (That's the sort of obscure word that Scrabble lives by, but to use such a word when it is NOT in the OSPD is just cheating!) This is the second or third time in a year or so that I have encountered one of these. Grrrr....

Summary: Too many unusual words
Comment: this Scrabble accepts a number of non English words that seem to me totally unnecessary...
Why not stick to english??
Thank you
