It's archaic! There is no backlight. Takes forever.

That's archaic! There is no backlight. It takes forever to play a round and this is NOT a typical Scrabble game format. It weighs a ton and is uncomfortable to hold. I paid $29 for it which was too much!

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Protection

Great portable Scrabble

Exactly what I was hoping for. It's fun to play when others aren't. You can also play in 2 player mode and compete against a live opponent. The AI is good and you can choose how difficult the game will be. I find it challenging and fun. I just wish there was a way to update the dictionary.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Very expensive

So good they don't make them anymore! Too good!

Great Grandma Gloria LOVES this little old Scrabble game. Too bad they don't make them anymore, but what will you do? I assume you buy your great grandmother an app that does the same thing in 10,000 colors and pixels? NO. I have to buy you something like this online or at a flea market or Mi-ma won't be happy and we don't want that, do we?! very easy to "read", whatever that means. —Brent.

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Don't really like it, everything is fine

Good Beach Toy - Handheld Games

I just took this item to the beach and had a blast with it. I would recommend it to any Scrabble fan. I'm so crazy I actually thought about buying an iPaq just to play Scrabble. There are a few downsides. There are several games, but I think it's worth playing just one.2. The computer can be very slow.3. The letters aren't really random4. Some of the words the computer uses don't appear in my Scrabble dictionary. Basically just buy it. Fun to play while sunbathing.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Secret

Think about it! in the Games and Accessories section

I really wanted to play the portable game Scrabble, so I gave it a go, even though I had my doubts. This game is really old and outdated; really. It's small with no backlight; difficult to read and difficult to manipulate. This isn't exactly Scrabble, but a variation of it. It comes without box without instructions. It was probably made in the 80's or 90's. It arrived quickly and well packaged; and it was in good condition. But I don't think you'll be happy with that. You can find it at the…

Pros
  • Hands-free
Cons
  • Negative experience
