Scrabble is one of the most popular word games falling in the category board party games played by two or four people together.
Words are assembled on a board with the help of letter tiles that fit in their grooves on the square board comprising 15 squares on each side making a 15 by 15 grid over it.
Words either form themselves with the letter tiles going from left to right or from top to bottom just like they do on a crossword puzzle.
Hasbro has got the name patented as far as the US and the Canadian territories are concerned. In Australia it is patented in the name of Mattle, which it bought from Murfett Regency in 1993.
The game has a real wide market throughout the world in as many as 121 countries and in as many as 29 different linguistic versions. Almost all the world and almost every major language!
Before the game starts, the letter tiles are put in an opaque bag so that the players cannot see them beforehand.
The game ends when a player has used every tile in her/his rack and no more tiles are left in the bag.
