Based on the popular word game, SCRABBLE for the iPhone/iPod Touch is cleverly
converted into a mobile board game, with cool graphics and appealing sound effects.

The game begins with an original ‘EA’ style of intro then you move onto a well-designed animated loading screen.
This all happens reasonably fast so you don’t get bored just watching intro’s.
Now you move on to the main-menu you are presented with several different options, once you select ‘Play Game’
you can either play a Solo-game, a 2 player Wi-Fi game and now Facebook Connect, the ability to play with people on Facebook from your iPhone/iPod Touch!
So this will keep you pretty busy with loads of different opponents to face. You can select from 2 different dictionaries, several computer difficulty levels,
game styles etc.

Controls are quite easy to learn, once you’re in the game you are presented with the SCRABBLE board, your seven lettered-tiles and a game tip.
Just Tap and drag the tiles to where you want to place them. To zoom-in on the board you just use the basic iPhone zoom function with your fingers.
You also have 3 different game functions you can use:

*Exchange: Change a letter you have for a different one (the letter is selected at random).
*Shuffle: Just re-orders the tiles you currently have.
*Best Word: This function finds the best possible word you can place on the board with the tiles you currently have.

Apart from that background music is quite appropriate, and graphics are stunning.

So for all you SCRABBLE fans on-the-go or even SCRABBLE new-comers this is an ideal app for you! Don’t hesitate to check it out now.
