"Works great, plays great."
I've read many reviews that state this product wouldn't work on their computers. It makes me wonder if they are laptop users...I don't know. I purchased two copies of this game and installed them on my and my wife's desktop pc's (built with Windows XP sp2). We've played numerous local network games against each other and have experienced absolutely no problems. I've played single player vs the computer and a couple of the mini games...also without issue. Challenging play with decent options...this will make us both better Scrabble players. I see two things that could be improved: 1. Be able to play without the cd (I've circumvented this by downloading a "cracked" exe from www.gamecopyworld.com and it works great, I've used that site many times for other games I've purchased) 2. You cannot play in windowed mode, it has to be full screen. But you can simply hit your "windows" key or alt-tab to work with other apps while waiting for your opponent to make their move...;).

I say buy it, but be aware that I have not tried it on a laptop.


"Compatibility issues!"
My issue is with the game maker Encore not the game there are too many things that will not let you play version of this game. I had go into "MSCONFIG" and shut everything down to even get it to load. And as is the "norm" these days you can't get a service rep that speaks English clearly to help find the trouble. I would say find a different company, not Encore to buy the game from. O and their idea of a "Jewel case" is a paper envelope wrapped in a piece of card board.

"Didn't work"
The product did not work, I put the disc into my computer and it turned my screen completely black.

"Doesn't work, no customer support"
It does not work with Windows XP. The company knows this, but the company no longer manufactures this game, so they wouldn't help me. I am stuck with a game that causes my computer to crash.

"Horrible"
This cd does not work on any computer so I am not satisfied with the results

What our customer's say!

"Had a lot of trouble installing", Immediately after the install, I experienced the black window, etc that other reviewers have mentioned.
Be patient, wait. It comes up eventually.
Getting into the game after the install is much easier.
You can always F2 it and it immediately goes to the menu.

"Scrabble, great fun!", I'd owned Scrabble CD for two years after being given one for a birthday--then I moved, and I couldn't find my CD. I looked and looked, and I finally ordered a new one. I really enjoy playing on the computer with Maven. It is a mini-vacation, takes me away from everyday and puts things into perspective. I recommend Scrabble CD!

"The Vista User Review, NOT FOR XP", If you are running Windows Vista and you love Scrabble this is a great buy. NOT FOR XP.

The game itself is just PRETTY GOOD.

Notable features:

HINTS: Gives you clues for a good play, every time you press the button until the word and coordinates is given. Feature can be disabled.

Word Suggestions: Shows you the best 10 plays and will play them for you if you click the choice

Dictionary: You can look up words during the game. No need to struggle flipping pages or carry around a heavy book.

Word Lister: List all possible words from you rack or a specified (you can input) anagram, constanant and vowel dump (when you have too many of the same letter or smae type of letter), list of words with "Q without a U"

Rack sort: Alphabetically, Vowels first, Descending or Ascending value, shuffle

Six levels of Difficulty: Novice (very easy) to Champion (Perfect)

Display options: Choose from 11 backgrounds, 3 game boards, a slant or straight board, dark or light tiles

Player Records: keeps player profiles including highest scored game, average score, number of games won and lost, and best play

Mini-games: 11 different single player games with different objectives for developing your scrabble skills

Custom dictionaries: You can create custom dictionaries to add your own words


Pros:
- Very Fast play, no lag
- Automatic scoring
- Automatic challenge and penalty (can be disabled)
- Pick your own tiles or let the computer pick for you
- Can be played online
- Satisfiable Graphics
- Never freezes
- Save up to 10 games
- Tournament mode


Cons:
- Must run full screen to play: You can't play the game and do something else on the PC. You'll have to press the Windows key. There is no minimize button.
- Only one rack can be shown at a time, make game time a little slow when playing with friends

Overall, its a pretty good game. Not only lets you play but teaches you how to improve your playing. I play it everyday.


"Somewhat behind the times", The game plays well, but the simple graphics show their age. Background choices are limited, with no capability for buyers to use their own. Fortunately, background music can be turned off.

There is no technical support, even though it is claimed in the documentation. The documentation is a PDF file that is not formatted to print out on 8.5x11 paper. No directions are given on how to print out the PDF file in the reduced size booklet format that is given. The CD must be inserted and remain in your CD drive each time you want to play the game, so there is constant accessing the CD. A much better solution would have been to have everything resident on your system.

It is just good value for the price. If you are willing to put up with the shortcomings, it provides good entertainment when needing something to do by yourself on your computer. You can select several levels of "Maven" expertise, when playing against the computer. This could be a great companion on a long plane, train, or bus trip.

Provision is made for you to play with several other players, via the Internet, but I have not tried that feature.

"Scrabble game is fun, but", This edition of Scrabble is fun, but it is more limited than others I've used. There are contradictions, too. For example, the game recognizes some foreign language terms, but not others. I find its dictionary limited and the words you use to play the game are limited to those in the game's dictionary. It is fun to play and incorporates some animations, which adds to its value.

"Scrabble Complete", I have no idea how much fun this game is as it never would load. We have all of the PC attributes required, but all we ever received was a blank screen.

"Way old, out of date version", This version is so old, the visuals are all grainy, and hard to see. The game is not at all pleasant to play, compared to the new versions, and you have to keep the CD in the drive all the time to play it, even after you install the game. I think it is sucking up a massive amount of juice to play it, too. (The reason I got rid of Scrabout).

This does NOT come with a jewel case - just a paper sleeve, and there's no paperwork or support for the game, either. The only info provided is on the disk, and that support number is disconnected. Seller claims to have no knowledge of computer games (Despite being primarily a seller of computer games), and just refers you to the disconnected support number.

It was cheap, so I'm just eating this one, but I won't be buying anything from this bunch again. Spare yourself some agony, and download a trial software, test it, and if you like it, spend the extra $10. and get the newest version.

"Scrabble Fun, in a Technology Style Method", This Scrabble game is not very appealing to adults, because they think you "cheat" when you press the word suggestions button or hint button. I thing suggestions improve your vocabulary and tell you what words you can make exactly with the tiles you have and the points. The Dictionary is that you type in a word that you want them to define, and they'll define it. Hint is an easier version of suggestions. The rules are the same as the normal Scrabble. And please believe me, even though I'm a kid that this game works on Windows XP.

"Scrabble", Item was sent very poorly packaged. Game has many glitches. When we can get it to work on our PC, great game.

"Possible solution to XP problem", I noticed that a lot of people here were having the same problem I'd had with this game, in that they couldn't get it to run.

I did a quick search online, and came up with the following in a forum (please note that this is NOT my post, I did not come up with it - but I did try it, and it did work for me!):

"I have this game with Windows XP Home Service Pack 2. And yes, I had many of the same errors people on this board had.
When I played a new game and made a word and clicked Play OR immediately clicked Pass, the screen would go to black and windows wanted me to send an error report.

I searched this forum and found that many of you had the same problem and some solutions were offered, but nothing seemed to work. I read that calls to tech support were futile and was ascared to call.

I am here to tell you I spent 5 minutes on the phone with tech support and the issue was fixed. The service number had menus which would point you to the exact error I was getting, "screen turning black when you click Play" or something to that effect.

All I did was right click on the shortcut to the game [ on the desktop or in the start menu ]. Click on the compatibility tab and had to UNCHECK the "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" box. Then I had to CHECK the "Disable visual themes" box and CHECK the "Turn off advanced test services for this program box"

After that the game worked like a charm. I hope this offers some aid to anyone who had these same problems."
