what is the Scrabble/wordfind-like game? is it like Speed Scrabble? That is a variant you play with Scrabble tiles on an upside-down Scrabble board. You start with all the tiles flipped face down, then the first person flips a tile over, next person flips a tile over ... until someone (anyone) calls out a word he/she can assemble with the face-up tiles. That person gets that word and it becomes that person's turn to flip a tile over, etc. But a person's word can be stolen if you can add a tile from the board to the person's word to make a new word.

Did that make any sense?

not really. there are groups of tiles with four letters each in a square. you pick 9 at random and it gives you a 6 x 6 grid (kinda like sudoku but with groups of 4 instead of 9). then you get 20 of this kinda clear tiles. you try to find words forwards backwards and diagonal (like a word find) on this random grouping of letters. the first person to use up all 20 of their tiles wins. pretty simple.

here's the link to it: http://gifts.barnesandnoble.com/search/product.asp?EAN=9780641732805&z=y&ITM=4

pretty neat.
