Scrabble Diamond Anniversary Game – 4 Reasons Why Scrabble Fans And Collectors Love It
The Scrabble Diamond Anniversary Game is perfect for fans and collectors. It is special because it marks the 60th anniversary of the popular word game. Hasbro commemorates the occasion by releasing one of the fanciest versions of the game to date. But what makes it different from other versions of Scrabble?
1. A Special Board with Raised Grids. The grids hold your tiles in place on the board. The quickest way to start confusion is to have someone’s letters slide out of place. This happens often when more than two people play, and the board is spun to face another player. Thankfully, this version of the game ends that problem.
You can stop worrying about your letters getting knocked out of place. This means no more confusion about what letters went where. And that means fewer arguments between friends and family.
2. A Sturdy Board and Carrying Case. The game board is attached to a rotating base that doubles as a carrying case. This comes in handy when you play away from home. The pieces stay in the box where they belong during transport.
3. Built-In Storage Trays. I love this feature. Storing the racks after a game drives me nuts. I have to get them into the box just right. If I don’t, the board sticks up and the box stays open. Do you have this problem? The Scrabble Diamond Anniversary edition solves that problem with built-in storage racks.
The storage racks are attached to the sides of the rotating base. They easily slide in and out for easy access. You simply put the racks and tiles inside when you’re done. I think it’s the best feature about this edition.
4. A Rotating Base. The game board is attached to a rotating base. The board easily spins to face any direction. Players can easily see the board when its their turn.
The Scrabble Diamond Anniversary Game is a great gift and a collector’s item. It’s definitely one of the most stylish editions available. Learn about other collectible Scrabble editions now -> Scrabble Collectible Editions.
