I use this game (among others) with my students on periodic "game days." High schoolers LOVE to play games. This is a super game for expanding Spanish vocabulary. I let my students use a dictionary. It is difficult to play unless you have a good vocabulary in Spanish, so allowing English words too is a good idea. Just count all Spanish words for double points after all special point values have already been added too. Rating: 5 / 5 Spanish Scrabble

I use this game in the classroom and marvel at the gentle pleasure had by all as they struggle to come up with words. We also play this at home, and have the same level of fun <br />We keep the game light... it is a challenge to all to work in a second language. <br />But oh what fun.

About the comment that this game is difficult in Spanish: The game is not easily in any language!

Also, keep in mind that Spanish due to its strong metaphorical constructs have many ways of expressing similar things. The poetry and imagery expressed in Spanish literature is quite powerfull.

Just have fun, learn and reinforce! :)
