How to play Scrabble: First, each player selects seven letter tiles at random. The game starts, and you need to spell out words in a crossword - like fashion on the playing board. Your word can be placed either across or down and must interlock with a tile already on the board. Try to use the premium squares on the grid to boost your score. The goal is to earn the highest score. Remember, this game can improve your vocabulary as you'll encounter new words. Assembly is required before you start playing, but no batteries are needed. The product dimensions are 35.5cm(L) x 35.5cm(D) x 4.5cm(H), and the package dimensions are 26.67cm (W) x 4.45cm(D) x 36.83cm(H). There are small parts in the game, so be careful if there are young children around to avoid the choking hazard. After playing, store the letter tiles in the letter bag and keep all parts in a safe place to keep the game in good condition.
