if PARK is played, (PARK)S, (PARK)ING, RE(PARK) and RE(PARK)ING are all acceptable plays. Every play thereafter must connect to at least one tile already on the board. Make a play by adding at least one new tile to the board, record the score for the play, and add to their cumulative score.Īfter making a play, the player announces the score for that play, and draws replacement tiles until they have seven tiles. ![]() You can only exchange if there are at least 7 tiles in the bag. ![]() The proper way to exchange tiles is to place the exchanged tiles face down, draw replacement tiles, and put the exchanged tiles into the bag. On every turn, the player has the option to: The first word formed must consist of at least two letters that form a word reading left-to-right or top-to-bottom, and touch the center square (H8, marked with a star). If there is still a tie, both players draw one tile, as described above. In most tournament games, the player with the fewer number of firsts will go first if there is a tie, the player with the most number of seconds goes first. Since having all 100 tiles is crucial to tournament game play, players should confirm that the Scrabble set contains 100 tiles (this is usually done by arranging the tiles into four 5x5 squares, or one 10x10 square). Each player draws seven tiles, and places them on his or her rack, hidden from other players. Players return tiles to the bag, and shuffle. The player with the letter closest to "A" in the alphabet, with the blanks taking precedence over "A," goes first, and play proceeds clockwise. Each player draws one tile to determine order of play. The 100 letter tiles are placed into an opaque bag (or face-down), hidden from view. The game is set up so that each player possesses one rack. Players should agree on a dictionary or word source to be used, for the purpose of adjudicating challenges. At the end of the game, when one player has used all of their tiles and there are no more tiles left to draw, the game ends. The goal of Scrabble is to score as many points as possible by placing letter tiles to create words onto the game board.
