Scrabble
Scrabble is the mobile equivalent of the timeless classic, board-based word game of the same name. Have fun playing Scrabble with your friends, family, the AI or even some random stranger from across the globe. This digitalized version of the game is definitely a lot better than the baord form, mainly because of the plethora of features that simply couldn't exist in the physical format of the game.One such feature is the "Teacher". By referring to this feature, you can see what your best word could have been after every turn, allowing you to learn from your mistakes and improve your game next time around. There is even a Speed Play mode (2- or 5-minute turns) that truly pushes the limits of its players by forcing them to think fast or they'll need to forfeit their turn. Best yet, the game is available in multiple languages, including French, Italian, German, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese, in addition to English.
Although this game is not developed by Hasbro themselves, EA Games is a reputable and established game developer and as such, this version of Scrabble is guaranteed to be as fun as the original board version. Try it today!
