Winning Moves Games Super Scrabble Deluxe Edition

My wife and I haven't stopped playing since we got it a month ago.This large plastic gameboard has raised edges framing each square on the board that help keep the pieces in place.It rotates by using tiny ballbearings encased throughout the bottom of the board. It works best on a large, flat, solid surface. It is a bit awkward rotating this large board especially if you have anything else around it. We play the game on a table all by itself and keep score, drinks, etc... on a side table.It is roughly TWICE the size and has TWICE as may letters as the standard scrabble game so more and longer words can be formed. It takes much longer to complete a game too. We are often leaving an "unfinished" game up overnight and continue it the next day and have even left "Your Turn" note on the board with the last word spelled.We are very pleased with "Super Deluxe Scrabble"... A++

I have been playing Scrabble for close to 50 years. Various boxes of Scrabble have accompanied me around the world to be played with anyone who had the remotest interest and also with friends who would ask "have you packed the Scrabble?"I always felt that I had a good command of the english language and since a child have been the one who bends the corner of a page over, as a reference point for my dictionary to find out the meaning of a word on the page. I still do it to this day.I have a life long friend in the UK and several times a month we will log on to the web and play live games of Scrabble, completing entire games in 10 minutes!!The new super sized board has advanced the possibilities of the game even further and as the saying goes, its hard to go back!Scrabble is a gift of learning the fun way and discovering how to bluff your family and friends into challenging a word that you know they will be uncertain about.Adore the game, the competitiveness and 50 years on, enjoy the fact that the english language can still teach me a thing or too.

My husband and I love playing Scrabble, so one day not too long ago, I surprised him by purchasing the deluxe version of Super Scrabble. I wanted it because of the opportunity to make words that you could not make with the regular Scrabble game. I also like the gridded board to help keep the tiles in place while the game is in progress.As far as the game play goes, we love it... but as far as durability goes, I'm not too thrilled with the way the board is made. The seam where the board folds not only won't always lay flat, the board comes apart there on a regular basis. In fact, I think the board has come apart every time we play the game... We're not rough on the game; the board is just made in a slip-shod manner. So far, my husband has been able to put the board back together again each time it comes apart, however, it is plastic so I'm not expecting it to last like it should.I can't recommend this version of the game to families with young children because of the structural defects of the game board; aside from that annoying flaw, I do recommend the Super Scrabble game to families with teenage children and to adults who like to stretch their vocabulary. Families with younger children should probably consider the less expensive regular version of Super Scrabble - the one where the board isn't plastic.---- addendum ----I'm revising this review nearly four years after the purchase of the game. We still love the expanded scoring opportunities and extra board space... and for a wonder, the board hasn't broken on us - yet. It still comes apart on the same regular basis - not quite every time we play anymore, but still more often than it should. The main change I've made is to the durability rating, which I decided deserves only two stars, not three. Yes, I paid too much - well over $40, but no, I'm not a bit sorry. I do wish the board was better made though, especially since this version of the game seems to be no longer available.

We (my mother, brother and myself) have been a fan of Scrabble for a very long time. After playing it for so many years, I started feeling the need of a longer game-play. On hunting a bit, came across Super Scrabble. The Deluxe version seemed to be better, especially because of the raised grids.I was a bit apprehensive purchasing it because of some reviews stating that the board was a bit flimsy, and that the tiles did not sit properly along the center of the board. But even if that was the case, I was OK only because of the fact that it had 200 tiles and a bigger board - something that we really wanted. So I went ahead and purchased it.It was shipped to my country India within 1 week. And let me tell you that I was totally satisfied. I found the quality to be very good, and the tiles fit in properly on the grid, even along the center. The board looks professional and special. The wooden tiles were of good quality, and had a comfortable silky feel to them.We have just finished our 7th game, and I feel this has been one of my best investment. I highly recommend this to all Scrabble lovers.

I was very disappointed with the Super Scrabble. I had hoped to find a Deluxe version that I had several years but this was the closest I could find. The description states it can be rotated around which I thought would be like the old deluxe version on a lazy susan. Not so. We had to slide this around on little "ball baring" feet which wasn't very helpful. Also, we began a game and wanted to continue it later. I went to pick up the board and it came apart at the middle seem where it was assembled. The only part that was okay are the plastic separators to help keep the tiles organized on the board. This was a gift for an elderly parent and it was frustrating for me! I am returning it today.
