Scrabble Set
Procedures:
- STEP 1
Draw seven letter tiles Have each player remove one tile out of the tile bag. The player that gets the letter closest to the letter "A" goes first. Each player then draws seven tiles from the tile bag. - The first player begins the game by placing a word on the star square at the center of the board, either horizontally or vertically. This star acts as a double-word score.
- STEP 2
Score each wordTally each word score by adding point values for each letter in the word. Point values range from 0 points for a blank tile to 10 points for the letters "Q" and "Z." Use a paper and a pen to keep track of the word scores for each player. - Some squares on the board allow you to multiply the tile's value by two or three.
- STEP 3
Continue playContinue playing in a counterclockwise direction around the board. During each turn, a player can decide to place a word on the board, exchange tiles, or pass. - If a player decides to exchange tiles, replace them with an equivalent number from the tile bag. If they choose this option, they cannot do anything else on that turn.
- STEP 4
Choose new tilesAfter placing a word on the board, draw an equal number of new tiles from the tile bag so that each player always has seven tiles. - STEP 5
Continue until game endsContinue playing. All letters played must touch at least one letter that is already on the board to form at least one complete word. When one player has used all of their tiles or no one can make any more words, the game ends. - If a player uses all seven of their tiles in one turn, they add a 50-point bonus to their word score.
- STEP 6
Challenge wordsConsult a dictionary only if you're challenging another player's word. If the word isn't in the dictionary, the player loses their turn. If the word is allowed, the challenger loses their turn. - STEP 7
Calculate the scoresCalculate each player's final score by adding up the points from all of their word scores. Then, subtract the sum of their unplayed letters. If one player has used up all of their letters, add the sum of everyone else's unplayed letters to their score. The player with the highest score wins.
