While I have always enjoyed board games, word games specifically have remained challenging for me.  I refuse to play Scrabble with my husband, as his skills are superior to mine and it is intimidating to play with him.  Hooray, Quiddler has given me an edge into what I term as word games.  I only have to be concerned about the cards in my hand, while playing attention to the discard/ draw deck-easy verses the interconnectivity of letters on a board which only multiply.
