Word Games and Puzzles to Play with Family and Friends

Invented in the 1930s by an unemployed architect, Scrabble went on to become the most successful board game of the 20th century.

Now SCRABBLE® is bigger and better than ever! This super-sized version of the game offers twice the number of tiles and a giant game board, allowing you to play words that weren't possible in the original game.

Anybody who likes Scrabble (or crossword puzzles) will probably enjoy this game and while Scrabble is limited to four players, this game will accommodate 2-3 times that many. Ideally suited for large families.
