Play SCRABBLE®, the world's most popular word game on your Palm OS device! The Handmark SCRABBLE® Game for the Palm OS is designed to play just like the classic board game. It utilizes a drag-and-drop tile placement interface, a built-in Official Scrabble Player's Dictionary, automatically scores every game and even saves partially completed games to be continued at any time!
Choose to play in either Friendly or Tournament mode. Friendly mode is like a casual family game where you can choose to accept or reject words not outside the standard rules. Friendly mode also allows the "Suggest Move" option displaying suggestions for your next move. Choose the Tournament mode and you are playing by the classic SCRABBLE rules. Includes challenges that automatically check the built-in Official Scrabble Player's Dictionary!
Practice your SCRABBLE skills when you play against the automated computer opponent. Choose the skill level of your opponent: Beginner, Novice, Intermediate, or Expert. Play against one, two or three opponents using one device and the Handmark SCRABBLE game will hide your tile rack from your opponents. Play against opponents using multiple devices with IR beaming. Study your tile rack while your opponents take their turn!
The Palm OS version of SCRABBLE is produced by Handmark under a license agreement with Infogrames, Inc., which publishes the electronic and interactive versions of Hasbro properties.
