Word-based board game
Scrabble is a variation of the word game that has enchanted many for years. For a limited time, you can play on any Windows-compatible computer. This game is not available online, so your computer will be your only opponent.
GameplayScrabble will automatically track your score. You can feel confident that the dictionary will not misspell any word.
The basic game is identical. To earn the most points, you must use the best words possible. If you play this game often, it can feel repetitive and you get used to the computer's style of play.
LimitationsSkunkstudio's Scrabble trial edition is not available and will freeze at the end unless you buy it. Another thing that can take away from potential experiences, is the fact that you have the option to change the difficulty level.
Online or in-person multiplayer is not available. The computer can only be beaten.
AlternativesWords with Friends 2 may not be Scrabble, but it's very similar to the iconic game. It emphasizes word building. It is a free program that is slightly more difficult to use than the traditional game. It also offers many improvements over the basic edition. Play with other people around the globe and make new friends while you spell out words.
Fundox brings scrabble to Windows 10 free of charge. Multiplayer mode allows you to play with up 4 players. It has the ability to analyse your playstyle. It tracks your words and other elements of play, so you can see the statistics.
Low valueOverall, this edition is a weak competitor in the field of Scrabble. It can be used on Windows 10 computers, but it does not offer much else. Other options are available for free and have no time limits, unlike the Scrabble edition. The app does not allow you to play with other people and restricts you to the AI's poorly-designed AI. It is not worth downloading or buying. It's better to play Words With Friends.
