See more Review: Great value, works with my own creation/version as inspired by The trial That gripped A Nation. (see inside for details) - LOVE LOVE SCRABBLE! Great value, good game. It even works for my own invention, which I call, "Hooked on Puhonnix" (patent pending) which is based on phonetic spelling and which derives its name from the OJ trial. So, before the OJ trial captivated a nation, WBCN BAWSSSTON (RAWWWK RADIO!) had evidently sold a lot of ad space to the Hooked On Phonics people. Once OJ's grammatically hapless notes to Nicole became public, WBCN created and played all these fake ads wherein OJ (via voice impersonator) is trying to pronounce the words in front of him, which became "hooked on puhonnix?" ... Which in turn became this version of Scrabble, in which all words must be spelled phonetically, yet with the strict rule that no excess letters can be used. Like the letter H; it seems to attract lazy sorts, so where a phonetic masterpiece like, "zew" (one of the most hilarious creations to date. this game is hilarious) could take advantage of the silent H and become the greater-points-bearing, "zehhw." I can see one H but two is taking advantage, IMHO. So one must have a judge and jury in place when playing my creation. Life must be fair. yeah, I regularly digress. Review: SPECS, AND COMPARING THIS GAME TO SCRABBLE PURCHASED OVER 40 YRS AGO - I am comparing the Scrabble game by Hasbro Gaming in a bright red box with white "SCRABBLE" on front and pictures of lots of letter tiles that I purchased on July 13, 2019 ..... AND a Scrabble game I purchased over 40 years ago that came in what I consider a purple box, some may call it dark burgundy or dark wine. My old game has gold lettering on the box, no pictures, and the box is kind of a textured cardboard, not smooth and glossy. COMPARISON: For anyone who just wants the main two differences without reading everything: 1. The new game has a larger board, but the actual playing area of the board is almost the same. The new board has a wider strip down one side to say "SCRABBLE" and to tell you how many of each letter there are. It tells you this on both sides of the border, facing the player who sits on either side. 2. The new game has lightweight red plastic racks to hold your letters. My old game has heavy duty wooden racks. Both WORK fine, but I prefer wood personally. If you want more exact specs and differences, as well as what HASN'T changed, read on: Old Board measures a tad over 14 1/4 x 14. The actual playing area is 12 1/4 x 11. New Board measures just shy of 15 1/2 x 14. The actual playing area is 12 1/2 x 11 1/4. Both boards fold in half. Mine is still in great condition. Hopefully new board will hold up as well. The backside of the old board is purple (or wine?). The back side of the new board is black. The instructions are printed inside the lid on the old game; on a nice brochure in the new game. The box for the old game measures 14 1/2 x 7 1/2 and is kind of textured heavy duty cardboard. The new game box measures 15 3/4 x 7 1/2 and is a lighter weight standard cardboard game box. The old game tells you only on one end of the board how many of each letter, so it is upside down and hard to see for the person sitting on the opposite side. The new board has it printed on both ends of the wide border, facing in the direction of the person sitting on either side, so it's easy to read for both. The Double Letter, Double Word, Triple Word colored squares on the board are the same on both. The letter tiles are the same size in both and definitely look and feel like wood to me, in both. There are 98 letters and 2 blanks in both games, and the same number of each letter in both games. (There are more of commonly used letters such as vowels, especially E and A, and N's and R's. And only one of letters like J, Q, X and Z, but the same number of each letter in both games.) The really big difference: the nice wooden racks in the old game vs. the cheap red plastic racks in the new game. Although I greatly prefer the wooden ones, I did not deduct a star for three reasons: 1, people who have never used the old game with wooden racks would probably think nothing of the plastic ones since most games these days have everything plastic everything. (Had the letter tiles been plastic, I WOULD have deducted a star!) 2, the plastic racks get the job done, no problem. 3, the price of this game, $11.99 when I bought it, is very reasonable for what you get, so it wouldn't be fair to expect the same quality of a game you pay considerably more for. The letters look to me like they are printed in slightly larger, thicker type on the new tiles, which is a GOOD thing. Still black letters, against very light wood tiles, which is best. The new game came with a black drawstring back, plenty large enough to hold all the letters with ease. My old game did not come with a bag, but I am fine with keeping them on the bottom of the box under the board. I consider this game a good value for the money and I would definitely recommend it, although I would point out to anyone I recommended it to that it has plastic racks, so they aren't disappointed. ## Features - 100% Toy - Imported - Classic Scrabble game has the letter tiles and game guide for a wordy showdown - Every letter counts in Scrabble - Includes 1 gameboard, 100 wooden letter tiles, 4 tile racks, 1 drawstring letter bag and game guide - Store the tiles in the drawstring bag - Ditch the TV, and re-ignite family night with the get-together amusement of a Hasbro game - Party it up, and surprise guests at your next event with laugh-out-loud games from Hasbro Gaming - Nostalgic tabletop gameplay meets interactive digital content for an immersive gaming experience - Hasbro Gaming imagines and produces games that are perfect for every age, taste, and event ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00IL5XY9K | | Age Range Description | kid, Teen, Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #478,745 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #12,452 in Board Games (Toys & Games) | | Brand Name | Hasbro Gaming | | Color | Multicolor | | Container Type | Box | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (20,888) | | Educational Objective | Spelling and Vocabulary | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00653569973720 | | Grenre | Word | | Included Components | 1 Drawstring Letter Bag, 100 Wooden Letter Tiles, 4 Tile racks, Game Guide, Gameboard | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 1.5 x 15.75 x 7.52 inches | | Item Dimensions L x W | 1"L x 1"W | | Item Display Dimensions | 10 x 1 x 0.01 x 10 inches | | Item Part Number | A8166 | | Item Type Name | Scrabble Game | | Item Weight | 10.1 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Hasbro | | Manufacturer Maximum Age (MONTHS) | 1188.0 | | Manufacturer Minimum Age (MONTHS) | 96.0 | | Manufacturer Part Number | A8166 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | No Warranty | | Material Type | Wood | | Model Name | HAS-A8166-0000 | | Model Number | A8166 | | Model Year | 1938 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Players | 4 | | Operation Mode | Manual | | Package Quantity | 1 | | Sub Brand | Friends | | Theme | Games | | UPC | 653569973720 695973827718 714936620200 | ## Images ![Hasbro Gaming Scrabble Game - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61S7eEEmZ5L.jpg) ![Hasbro Gaming Scrabble Game - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81CW4gKChCL.jpg) ![Hasbro Gaming Scrabble Game - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81PWcqXc6sL.jpg) ![Hasbro Gaming Scrabble Game - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710WoVxVOnL.jpg) ![Hasbro Gaming Scrabble Game - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ZvHkwu4RL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: what size is the board** A: I measured the board and it's 14 x 15 1/2, nice game! **Q: Are the tiles engraved or printed?** A: Printed. **Q: does the board rotate** A: No. It's just an old fashioned board game. **Q: The dictionary comes in spanish?** A: I don't think so.
