Description:
This is a card and word game for 1-8 players. In the non-solitaire versions, the game consists of 8 rounds. In the first, each player is dealt three cards; in the second, four; and so on with the final round being 10 cards. Each card has one or two letters and a point value. At their turn, players can draw a card from the top of the discard pile or from the deck. They must discard one card. When a player is able to use all the cards in his hand (with one left for discarding) to spell words (which must use a minimum of two cards each), he may go out by placing the words on the table. The other players then get one more draw, and must play as many cards as they can. Scoring is done by adding up the point value of all cards used in words and subtracting any left over in the hand (not counting the discard card). In addition, the player with the most words and the player with the longest word each get 10 bonus points. If two or more players tie for a bonus, that bonus is not given in that round.

A bit of fast funFeb 22, 2010 Good for a couple fast games, but much better if played creatively with house rules: the original rules get old pretty quickly.

It's a Solitaire Game for Many PeopleFeb 17, 2010 The only interaction is that during your play/turn you get to chance to choose from the discard pile and only the card that the person before discarded. It's also too easy to make words and go out, two rounds is the norm; and the larger the word made means nothing extra. The high review average for this game says something about the people posting reviews in general.
Lots of family funFeb 15, 2010 This has quickly become a new family favorite and is great for most ages with some ability to spell. Sometimes my 8 year old needs help arranging his cards into words to get the most points. Some of us like Scrabble, and some of us don't, but ALL of us like Quiddler! You don't have to be a lover of words and dictionaries to enjoy this game--though it just might get your kids looking up words in the dictionary to get more points in the next game.
Love this game!Feb 10, 2010 This is the BEST game ever! Its fun, quick, easy to play and for the entire family. We play this game quite frequently! Since its only a large deck of cards, its very versatile and can be played or taken anywhere!!!
Excellent when there's not enough time for Scrabble!Feb 07, 2010 Great for long rides, short attention spans, or not enough time for a full Scrabble game; and you don't need a lot of space, big boards with pieces that get lost OR BATTERIES! It's easy to learn, challenging even for adults, and a great way to get your kids to expand their spelling skills without making it boring. We have worn out three sets, and given four sets to family and friends who loved it. We will use two games at once when we have a lot of people playing. Since it is hard to find in stock in stores, I am thrilled we found them on Amazon. Try it. If you like Scrabble, you'll love this.
