15. WHAT IS BOARD GAME?
• A board game is a game that involves counters or
pieces moved or placed on a pre-marked surface or
"board", according to a set of rules. Games can be
based on pure strategy, chance or a mixture of the
two, and usually have a goal that a player aims to
achieve.
16. Origin of Scrabble
• Originally called Criss Cross, the game, which was based
on the crossword puzzle and anagrams, was developed
by Alfred M. Butts, an architect, in 1931. It was
redesigned, renamed as Scrabble, and marketed by
James Brunot in 1948. It was first sold in Great Britain
in 1954.
• Scrabble was later produced in many foreign
languages, Braille, and magnetic editions and continued
to be one of the leading board-and-tile games in
the United States. Tournaments have been held in the
United States since 1973.
• In 2005 Scrabulous, an unauthorized online version of
Scrabble, was released, and two years later it debuted
on the social-networking site Facebook.
17. WHAT IS SCRABBLE?
• Scrabble is a word game in which two to four
players score points by placing tiles, each bearing a
single letter, onto a game board divided into a
15×15 grid of squares.
20. S

• You should have a game board, 100
letter tiles, a letter bag, and four racks.
• Before the game begins, all players
should agree upon the dictionary that
they will use, in case of a challenge. All
words labeled as a part of speech
(including those listed of foreign origin, and as
archaic, obsolete, colloquial, slang, etc.)
• Permitted with the exception of the
following:
• words always capitalized,
• abbreviations,
• prefixes and
• suffixes standing alone, words requiring a
hyphen or an apostrophe.

• Place all letters in the pouch, or
facedown beside the board, and mix
them up. Draw for first play. The
player with the letter closest to "A"
plays first. A blank tile beats any
letter. Return the letters to the pool
and remix. All players draw seven
new letters and place them on their
racks.

Place all letters in the pouch, or facedown beside the board, and
mix them up. Draw for first play. The player with the letter
closest to "A" plays first. A blank tile beats any letter. Return the
letters to the pool and remix. All players draw seven new letters
and place them on their racks.
Complete your turn by counting and announcing your
score for that turn. Then draw as many new letters as
you played; always keep seven letters on your rack, as
long as there are enough tiles left in the bag.
Play passes to the left. The second player, and then each in turn,
adds one or more letters to those already played to form new
words. All letters played on a turn must be placed in one row across
or down the board, to form at least one complete word. If, at the
same time, they touch others letters in adjacent rows, those must
also form complete words, crossword fashion, with all such letters.
The player gets full credit for all words formed or modified on his or
her turn.

New words may be formed by:
a.Adding one or more letters to a word or letters already on the board.
b. Placing a word at right angles to a word already on the board. The
new word must use one of the letters already on the board or must add
a letter to it. (See Turns 2, 3 and 4 below.)
c.Placing a complete word parallel to a word already played so that
adjacent letters also form complete words. (See Turn 5 in the Scoring
Examples section below.)
No tile may be shifted or replaced after it has been played
and scored.
Blanks: The two blank tiles may be used as any letters.
When playing a blank, you must state which letter it
represents. It remains that letter for the rest of the game.

You may use a turn to exchange all, some, or none of the
letters. To do this, place your discarded letter(s) facedown.
Draw the same number of letters from the pool, then mix
your discarded letter(s) into the pool. This ends your turn.

Use a score pad or piece of paper to keep a tally of
each player's score, entering it after each turn. The
score value of each letter is indicated by a number at
the bottom of the tile. The score value of a blank is
zero.
The score for each turn is the sum of the letter
values in each word(s) formed or modified on that
turn, plus the additional points obtained from
placing letters on Premium Squares.
Premium Letter Squares: A light blue square
doubles the score of a letter placed on it; a dark
blue square triples the letter score.

Premium Word Squares: The score for an entire word is doubled when one of its
letters is placed on a pink square: it is tripled when one of its letters is placed on
a red square. Include premiums for double or triple letter values, if any, before
doubling or tripling the word score. If a word is formed that covers two
premium word squares, the score is doubled and then re-doubled (4 times the
letter count), or tripled and then re-tripled (9 times the letter count). NOTE: the
center square is a pink square, which doubles the score for the first word.
Letter and word premiums count only on the turn in
which they are played. On later turns, letters already
played on premium squares count at face value.
When a blank tile is played on a pink or red square,
the value of the word is doubled or tripled, even
though the blank itself has no score value.

When two or more words are formed in the same
play, each is scored. The common letter is counted
(with full premium value, if any) for each word. (See
Turns 3, 4 and 5 in the Scoring Examples section.)
BINGO! If you play seven tiles on a turn, it's a Bingo.
You score a premium of 50 points after totaling your
score for the turn.
Unplayed Letters: When the game ends, each player's score
is reduced by the sum of his or her unplayed letters. In
addition, if a player has used all of his or her letters, the
sum of the other players' unplayed letters is added to that
player's score.
