5 out of 5 stars Rugged, portable, self-contained word-fun   September 9, 2008

This is a great edition of the classic Scrabble game. I really liked the design of the molded plastic case which opened up to reveal a raised-grid to keep your tiles in place. The unit is rugged and sturdy and would travel quite well thanks to the built-in handle and all-in-one construction. The bottom of the case has wheels to allow for easy pivoting from player-to-player and has two slide-out drawers that hold all of the game pieces. Speaking of game pieces, this inludes snazzy black wooden tiles with silver lettering, a soft velvety bag to hold them in and futuristic rounded tile-stands in clear red plastic (as opposed to the wooden ones of days of yore). The design of the actual playfield is less striking than previous versions as this one seems "candy-coated", but is still nice enough.




5 out of 5 stars Scrabble on wheels...wheee!   October 3, 2008

I have every edition of Scrabble from the 1950s through the present, so I'm kind of a die-hard. That being said, this Diamond Edition is a newly revamped Scrabble game...what could better raise the heartrate of a word nerd?
The new set is very cheerful looking and the board finally moves so all can push it around and really see what's what. The curved racks are great. Just a few down sides. One is, they use the same color in this edition for the double letter score that they used for the triple letter score in the original, and the color that was the triple word score in the original is now the color for the double word score! I love that this set looks more like eye candy, but couldn't they have thought up a few slightly different hues for those spots, instead of changing what we're all used to? I'm not a reactionary - I love change, but this just seems sort of unnecessary. It is annoying for quite a while, but one can adapt. The other minor thing is that there's no score pad. That is greatly outweighed, however, by the fact that this great set can be easily toted around because it folds up into a neat little lunch-boxy thing. You can leave your Onyx edition with the box the size of New Jersey at home.

Thanks, Scrabble. We'll see you at the Platinum Edition??

While not touted as a travel game, I am very impressed with the case. There are drawers for holding the letters and it closes very nicely. Just the addition of a rubber band or string would keep it nicely together for travel. There are squares to hold the blocks in place and wheels to rotate the board. An excellent value for a fun and classic game!

I have several Scrabble games, but this one is now my favorite. The case, the board, the tiles - I like everything about it. After receiving mine, I immediately bought one to give as a gift, and have decided to buy another one to give as a Christmas gift.

I am very pleased with this version of Scrabble. It's a favorite game in our household and we have only ever played the standard version until we purchased this one. I love that the gameboard on this one is an actual carrying case and has storage drawers for the pieces. It also has wheels on the bottom of the board/case so you can spin the board while playing, which is a wonderful feature. The board has raised rows so that the letter pieces don't slide around. If you are a scrabble fan, it's definitely worth the money!
