Sinclair User Top 50 Spectrum Software Classics - 22/50
The only version of the popular boardgame for the Spectrum and the best version on any microcomputer. The wordgame allows four people to play. If only one person plays the computer can take the part of the other three with ability levels set by the human contestant. The program contains a dictionary of 11,000 words and will respond within 90 seconds. It is possible to cheat by making the computer believe a word is correct but that is unsporting. Scrabble is the best boardgame simulation and certainly the most intelligent. Word-packing techniques leave room in memory for the excellent graphics and the computer capacity to play three parts.
