Scrabble Vintage Bookshelf Edition

The Classic Word Creation Board Game
 
by WS Game Company

The Game:

In the 1930's, during the Depression, an unemployed architect named Alfred M. Butts invented a boardgame using letter tiles and a scoring system. He first called it Lexico and then Criss Cross Words, but it remained relatively unknown until he teamed with entrepreneur James Bruno, who trademark the name Scrabble. The newly named game first rolled off the production line in 1948 and has been wildly successful ever since.

Every Letter Counts:  Scrabble is the ultimate crossword game in which every letter counts. Grab your friends and take turns forming words on the board. After playing your turn, count the value of all the letters in every new word that you formed.  Don't forget the bonus points for placing letters on premium squares.  Double letter - Triple word.  It's all about playing words on the high-scoring hotspots to get ahead. Played a Q on a triple-letter score? Your score just got a lot bigger. Use all your 7 tiles in one turn, and score a whopping 50 points in addition to your word score! Knowing the rules and a few tricks will help you to score more points and improve your chances of winning. At the end of the game, the player with the highest score wins.

The Game:

In 1944, a retired clerk in England, named Anthony Pratt invented a game called “Murder”. Mr. Pratt brought the concept to Waddington’s games in Leeds, England, who begin producing it in 1949.

There’s a mystery that needs solving, and you’re just the detective to do it. One murder…6 suspects. In this suspenseful murder mystery game, players have to find out who's responsible for murdering Mr. Boddy of Tudor Mansion in his own home.

Eliminate information throughout the game in this classic whodunit. The gameboard has rooms to move in and secret passages to navigate faster, and if you’re a super sleuth you can keep track of the clues with your Detective Notepad and solve the case! When the case is solved, you can store all the cards and parts in the bookshelf case – until the next murder!
