My last post is about Chess, but now let's get to know more about Scrabble. Why do I title my post that way? it's because, of course, scrabble is all about, thinking of best words, spell it right and form it correctly on the board. Scrabble from the word itself, I can give that it's best synonyms word is criss cross, because you can form words diagonally, vertically, horizontally, downward or upward, parallel, perpendicular and adjacent as long as you spelled it correctly. This another strategic and hard thinking board game suits for the people who are interested in discovering new words but it is also better for the people who are interested in making words perfectly.
The best word that I can describe Scrabble is challenging, because when you play this game, your mind was forced to think the best word that you can give to defeat your opponents. I say opponents because you don't have only one opponent but two or more.
Scrabble board is usually made up of wood and the squares tile wood with letters on it are usually made also with wood or even plastic. The racks or what we called tile holder are also made up of wood. You will notice that there are squared tiles that have color: Each tiled color have corresponding score on it.
The blue squared gives a double letter scores. The green colors give triple letter scores. The red ones can give a double word score and orange squares gives a triple word score. It means, that when you always put your letter under the corresponding tile colored, it will give you a score or at least a best or high score.According to one of the rules in playing scrabble, all words that you put on the board must be on the dictionary, so when you put a word that not in a dictionary it's not counted.
During the turn of each players, they must have a seven letters on their rack, on these seven letters they will get a particular word that they will put on the board. On the rule before the player turns they have three options. First pass, forfeiting the turn, for best understanding for forfeit it means lose or penalty, and scoring nothing. Then, exchanging one or more tile from the equal number from the bags and you scored nothing, this option is available if there is only seven letters on the bag, lastly, play at least one tile on the board.
Actually, I don't perfectly know how to explain these three options but I can apply them when I'm playing scrabble. Sorry if I can't give you a full and more explainable details about scrabble because me also don't have enough time to play this game. One tip that I can give, practice and review for more words so that you always win in this challenging game. In this generation, scrabble now were not always played by many people because they would prefer to play online games, I don't say that online games are not good but scrabble are much better. If you don't want to play it on the board then play it online because on this modern world all games that can be played practically were can be played also by online.
When I say all about board game, scrabble i one of my favorite.
So, let's just play this game and be challenged. I can be sure that this will be interesting and great..:)
