Scrabble has been an American pastime for more than six decades. With the release of Hasbro's Scrabble Deluxe Edition, wordsmiths everywhere can put their anagrammatic knowledge to the test--in style. Players each receive seven "letter tiles" at the beginning of the game and must construct words out of those letters, as in a crossword puzzle.
You get lots of points for using difficult to place letters, like "Q" and "X." You can also score big by laying words across "Triple Word Scores," which occur at the corners and middle edges of the board. The Deluxe Edition features a swiveling center board for easier rotation. The plastic grid and handsome letter bag prevent pieces from getting lost.
