Toys and Games Reviews of Super Scrabble
Customer Review: The Perfect Gift for the Scrabble Fanatic
Summary: 4 Stars
My son loves the original Scrabble and when he found out about this Super Scrabble, it was his must-have gift this Christmas. He loves that the playing area is larger and the quadruple score letter and word spaces make this version even more fun. The only drawback is that it can take quite a while to play an entire game (on average, it's taken us anywhere from 1 1/2 to 2 hours!) so it's not something we get to play often. And, if I had my druthers, I would LOVE it if they made a deluxe version with the non-slide grids so that the board could be turned without the tiles getting jostled out of place.Customer Review: What a great game
Summary: 4 Stars
We loved this game. The bigger board allows you to really spread out the game, and the big point values (quadruple word scores!) mean you can be way behind and suddenly catch up. The first time we played, the game did go on longer, but it didn't seem like it dragged on forever. The only reason I wouldn't give the game 5 stars is because I'm used to the original version on the deluxe board that swivels and has recessed spaces to hold the tiles. Because this board is bigger, it's hard to keep the tiles still if you need to turn it. Even still, its a great idea to improve on a classic game.Customer Review: DISAPPOINTED!! CHEAPLY MADE
Summary: 1 Stars
I WAS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS PATICULAR MODEL OF SCRABBLE. THE PICTURE ON THE BOX MISREPRESENTS THE ACTUAL GAME YOU WILL RECEIVE FOR AN OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNT OF $29.99 + TAX, YOU RECEIVE A SCRABBLE GAME CONSISTING OF PLASTIC, CARDBOARD AND STICKERS. WHAT A JOKE. I WOULD'VE PAID $50.00 IF IT WAS A DECENT SET, MAYBE MADE OF WOOD OR METAL, LIKE THE PICTURE ON THE BOX "MISREPRESENTS". NEEDLESS TO SAY I RETURNED IT, & WE ARE STILL SEARCHING FOR A "ACTUAL" DELUXE SET. HECK THE TRAVEL SCRABBLE SET LOOKED BETTER THAN THIS DID. C-H-E-A-P-L-Y M-A-D-E!!Customer Review: Unusable board game
Summary: 1 Stars
There are no indentions on the large board to hold the tiles in place as they are played. With a board that large and that many tiles after a very short time it turns into a tile skating rink with a great deal of time spent trying to keep the tiles in their original position.
One game was enough.
We will never use it again.
Our present standard scrabble board has an indented surface to hold the tiles in place and had we known that the new one did not we would never have considered buying it.
Customer Review: Excellent for the Steady-Handed
Summary: 4 Stars
Yes, this is a great expansion of the classic Scrabble game, so if you like Scrabble and you have a lot more time to spend on a game (or more than 2 players) this is completely worth getting.
That said, if you don't have a steady playing surface and hand, the tiles will easily get messed up, which is my only complaint, particularly since I am used to the Deluxe and Travel editions of the classic game, which keep played tiles in place.
If this game came in a Deluxe version, this would be a 5-star review.
