Not the same
I was so excited to find a scrabble CD that would be Mac OS X.5 friendly. This is it BUT, it is not the same game that I played on my OS 9. Not at all. The graphics don't compare, but more importantly, it doesn't "challenge" when your word is incorrect. Plus, there aren't the exercise games I used to play like 2 letter, 3 letter, anagrams, etc. Also, there isn't a way for more than one player to play the computer. One at a time anyway. No keeping tabs on running scores for other players in my house. It is very disappointing and I hope MacSoft can come up with an up to date game, not so "Mickey Mouse".

Great fun!
I am an intermediate level player and bought this to use on the new MacBook Air with OSX10.5.2. I was pleasantly surprised with the fast loading speed for the game and the ease of use. The board letters are big and bright enough and you can see the countdown for the number of tiles left. No unexpected program quits. Extras like Scrabble dictionary and hints make this a great way to upgrade your skills.

A disappointment!
After years of fun with Scrabble on my Windows PC, I missed the game when I switched to an iMac. I thought this was the answer--but it is an inferior version of the game compared to what I'm used to. For starters, the software locks up, mostly when exiting (but not during a game) once in a while, necessitating a forced quit. I'm also used to a choice of board appearance options, but here there are none. It lacks some of the nicer features I'm accustomed to, even in the cheap General Mills/AOL promotional cereal box version I got for Windows years ago. Sure, it isn't a total waste, it works mostly okay, but if you are used to a really good Windows version, this is minor league quality in comparison. This will get you by if you are a Scrabble-starved Mac owner, just expect hamburger, not filet mignon.

Scrabble
Awesome! At last a Scrabble game for Macs that works with OS 10 and doesn't require that the disc be inserted to play a game.

Tried and True
I got the Mac version of this game and it is just like the original, which needs no improvement! It's great!
