While the game is very acceptable as a substitute for a live opponent, it is not as engaging as a real person. Still, since few people ever want to play me, it'll have to do. I had an older version of this exact same game by the same company, and I became convinced that it was shortchanging me on tiles. Not true of course, but some of us think better when we have a real opponent rather than a virtual one.

Not like my old scrabble game,now I have to leave a disk in the cd drive while I play and with this game I can't switch back and forth between game and other programs.

excellent game for the Scrabble lover! Lots of configurations let you customize the game to make it your own. Play against the computer can be as hard or as easy as you wish, and you can even customize the computer players difficulty rating! This was actually the second copy of this game I have bought, just to have a spare disk, since inserting the disk is necessary to play the game. I have played this game hundreds of times and have no complaints. An excellent game and a great bargain!!

It is fun playing Maven and winning! Maven has command of the dictionary and learning new words is good. 6 different levels of play. Had to buy an old XP computer for $25 to use the game. It does not play on newer operating systems.

Scrabble Complete is the best and most detailed Scrabble game for the computer ever, and it truly deserves its name. Everything in the game is well done, and it deserves your hard earned cash. It's a MUST buy for every Scrabble enthusiast, casual gamer, school/college student that would like to improve his vocabulary. Graphics: The graphics are nicely done, the boards actually do look wooden and the in-game interface is very well organized. There are different types of boards to choose from, both 2D and 3D. There are nice backgrounds as well. Sound: The in-game music is pretty nice (and you could turn it off of course, if it's not to your liking), and there are good sound effects for the board movement. And what else would you want from a Scrabble game? Gameplay: The game features a hints system that will help you form words and show where you could put them in case you've come to a dead still (or just want to cheat against the computer opponent :P). And in case you think that cheating is unethical, there's yet another option that allows you to see all the words that you could make from your letter inventory, without letting you know if you can actually put them or not on the board. And after you're done playing a game, if you wish it will even analyze the played game and tell you hints and suggestions for future use. So after you're all happy and excited about winning the latest game, and select turn-by-turn analysis of your last played game, it'll show you have you could've gotten 2X of the points you had at the end of the game, and makes you feel ashamed of your lousy knowledge of English. There are also "mini-games" available, which let you select the mode of play, such as for example forming only 5 letter words or trying to get the maximum amount of points with a given board situation and letters inventory. And of course there's also an option to add your own words into the dictionary. Multiplayer: You can play the game with your friends on the same computer, a local network or over Internet, since it supports Hot-seat, LAN and Internet modes of play. The multiplayer connection is very stable and there are no dropouts/bugs, as tested over the Internet with a friend of mine, so there is no chance that you'll get disconnected in the middle of the game.Read full review
