What did we think?
My son loves the Rubik’s Cube and Scrabble so I knew this would be the perfect game for him. A great game for travel, and trying to fall asleep in bed since you can play it solo. My son enjoyed the game and loved the challenges it brought. I have a six year old that loved to twist and turn it but needed help to play for a game. I did find it to be a nice way to encourage forming words. Not only did she love all the twists and turns she loved seeing the letters make a word she knew. My 13 year old had a bit of fun with it but dislikes all forms of word games. I dislike the Rubik’s Cube and Scrabble but oddly I really enjoyed Scruble. Word games have never been a big thing for me. I never considered myself a great speller or the quickest in those games. However, Scruble is fun to play on your own to pass the time and the challenge of twisting and turning to build on words or create your own held my interest. I also love any game that is compelling and educational that is not electronic.
