Scrabble
Scrabble is a word game for two to four players. Each player draws letter tiles and builds words on a grid, scoring points for the letters and for premium squares. The game rewards vocabulary, planning and a little patience, and it works well for a focused group around a table. Games can be short or run for a whole evening depending on how players approach the board. The rental includes the board, letter tiles, racks, tile bag and score pad.

How to play
- Place all letter tiles in the bag and mix them; agree a dictionary for challenges.
- Each player draws one tile to decide who starts, then each draws seven tiles for their rack.
- The first player builds a word of at least two tiles across the centre star, reading left to right or top to bottom.
- On each turn, play tiles in one straight line that connect to at least one tile already on the board.
- Score the letters and any premium squares the new word covers; a blank tile is worth zero.
- Using all seven tiles in one turn earns a 50-point bonus.
- Draw new tiles at the end of your turn to bring your rack back to seven.
- You may swap tiles or pass instead of playing a word.
- The game ends when the bag is empty and one player has used all their tiles; the highest score wins.
