Scrabble is a scramble for points!

Scrabble is a game that is played in varying skill levels. It is a words game that in some ways resembles a crossword puzzle. Players start the game with a number of tiles with individual letters on them. The goal is to create words using those letters and build them onto other words already on the board. The more complex the word using many letters, the more points a player will score for his efforts. At the end of the game the points are totaled and the winner is the player with the highest score. It is a good game to help teach children their letters and how to spell. It is also a good game for people that love words and like to be creative with letters. Scrabble can help increase your vocabulary.

A Scrabble board is very simple and the game really revolves around the tiles that people use to make words. These tiles are most often small squares of varnished wood that fit together neatly when placed together on the board. The board is just a grid to help keep the words orderly though out the game. Using difficult letters like “z” and “q” help score a higher point count when the tiles of each play are counted.

Virtual Scrabble can also be played now where the game is electronic and played on your computer. If you have access to the Internet you can meet opposition and challenges from all over the world. It is a game that is popular in many countries and in several languages.
