puzzle games

I read some commentary online where people were having problems running this game on Win XP. I have XP and haven't had any problems. I did download the patch from the atari community website before I started, so maybe that prevented any issues. But if you like Scrabble, but have a hard time rallying family members to play, this game is great.

Its very easy to use the interface, and single player games will definitely improve your Scrabble skill - particularly when you're stumped and you use the hint feature. The computer will give you ideas that help you see opportunities for wordplay, and thereby strengthen your game. The multiple skill levels are very helpful. Currently I play against the intermediate skill level and the games are very close.

I tried multiplayer against a family member, and found that as long as both parties have the patch it works great. My only complaint is that the font used for the chat window is slightly difficult to read, and I don't see a way to change it. That's a minor complaint, however.

When you consider the low price, this game is a good, fun, cheap investment.

This is a great game and much like the board game. I have the version from Hasbro Interactive, but it is the same as the one from Atari. A good game for people who are very good with words and great spellers (which I'm not).

Contrary to popular belief this game plays very well in Windows XP.
