Scrabble

This has been converted from the popular program on the Spectrum. It has lost much of its graphic flair along the way, but still plays a mean game of Scrabble.

The vocabulary is only 8,000 words, but includes many that are just the job for this game. If you want to cheat, the computer will accept any nonsense as a word. Once it's beaten you a couple of times you may well consider such tactics.

Up to four players.
