The Classic Word Game Comes to iPhone - SCRABBLE Review
SCRABBLE is a free and impressive re-creation of the classic board game for iPhone and iPad. Beloved by wordsmiths everywhere, this game offers various ways to play against opponents, whether it's a random player, a specific user, or passing the game back and forth with a friend in person. It's a great addition to your collection of iOS word puzzle apps, providing an authentic and convenient experience.
Playing SCRABBLE feels very natural, with the simulation carefully designed to resemble the original board game. Users can easily place tiles on the board by dragging and dropping them from the rack at the bottom of the screen. Once a word is formed, tapping the "Play" button adds the points to the player's total. To ensure word validity, SCRABBLE provides a dictionary within the app for double-checking. The game also allows tile swapping and recalling of submissions.
SCRABBLE's presentation is immaculate, featuring high-definition graphics and intuitive menu screens. However, the background music can become somewhat annoying, and the pop-up ads that interrupt gameplay after every round feel intrusive, especially since there are also static ads at the bottom of the screen.
Despite these minor drawbacks, SCRABBLE is a fantastic adaptation of the classic board game for iPhone and iPad.
