Customers say
Customers find this word game fun and engaging, particularly for vocabulary building and spelling practice. The rotating board is appreciated as a nice touch, and customers consider it well worth the price. The build quality and ease of play receive mixed feedback – while some find it reasonably well made and easy to understand, others report poor build quality and say it’s not easy to handle.

Such a Fun Game!
Such a fun game! We have really enjoyed this one. It is very similar to Scabble but easier to play and the board on a lazy susan is a bonus! Fantastic game to add to our collection.

Fun For Th3 New Speller and Beyond
Super fun for the child who is learning to spell. My 3 yr old grandson loves this game and will take it out with just the letters and practice spelling words. He loves it. The letters are sturdy plastic and a good size to hang onto and menuver.

Well made game, love the swivel board
Fun word strategy game, transforming words into new words, different ways to earn points, and more. It’s well made and the swivel board is a big plus. This has different scoring from scrabble. It’s more about thinking creatively about transforming words into new words or changing tense. Scoring is different from scrabble as are some of the rules, which seem to be designed to enable upward transformations, for example, words cannot be made plural so an “S” can’t be tagged onto the end of a word, it stretches the player to use an S at the beginning of a word to create a new word. It takes time to learn the rules and we discovered violating them restricted the opportunities to build upwards. This has become one of our go-to games! Very happy with this purchase.

Not as heavy duty as the original game but it holds together well.
I bought this one for my grandson because he enjoyed playing it with me when he came to visit. I’m used to playing with the original game which is an 8×8 tile board with 64 letter tiles. This one is 10×10 tiles with 100 letter tiles. I just ordered another one for myself and will introduce it to the group I play with when I get it.

I just love this game! At Christmas when the family gets together, this is the perfect game to bring young and old together for a game that is both educational and fun. Teaches techno addicted children how to interact with adults.
