In the popular SCRABBLE Brand Crossword Game, players create words from letters selected at random from a stockpile of 100 tiles. The tiles are laid down on a board 15 squares high by 15 squares wide to form an interlocking, crossword arrangement.
Each letter of the alphabet has a particular value and the number of tiles bearing each letter depends on the language.
