How to Play Scrabble (Comprehensive Guide)
📋 1. Objective of Scrabble:
The goal is to form words on the board using letter tiles to score the highest points. Each letter has a different point value.
🎯 2. Game Setup:
- Players: 2-4
- Materials: Scrabble board, 100 letter tiles, tile racks, and a score sheet.
- Tile Distribution: Each player draws 7 tiles to start.
🔤 3. Basic Rules:
- Starting the Game: The first word must cover the center star.
- Forming Words: Words can be placed horizontally or vertically.
- Valid Words: Use words found in the official Scrabble dictionary. No proper nouns, abbreviations, or foreign words unless widely accepted in English.
💡 4. Scoring System:
- Each letter has a specific value (e.g., Q = 10 points, E = 1 point).
- Bonus Squares:
- Double Letter (DL) & Triple Letter (TL): Boost individual letter scores.
- Double Word (DW) & Triple Word (TW): Multiply the entire word’s score.
- Bingo Bonus: 50 extra points if you use all 7 tiles in one turn.
🚀 5. Advanced Strategies:
- Parallel Plays: Place words alongside others to create multiple words at once.
- Tile Management: Save high-value letters like Z, X, Q for bonus squares.
- Hooks: Add single letters to existing words (e.g., "CAT" → "CATS").
📚 6. Over 1000 High-Scoring Words to Know:
