This game is a lot of fun. I like it better than Scrabble because you can make any word you have the letters for, whereas Scrabble only allows you to play a word if there is a place on the board to put it. I've learned some new words from playing this game so much. The only annoyance is the need to shuffle the discard pile 3/4 of the way though a game because there are no more cards left in the deck.
