A New Yorker writes: "Scrabble, schmabble ... Thanks for all you have done to make my life way more exciting with long interesting creative words on this board and thinking way outside the box to win. Finally a game where poets and wild thinkers can win, rather than spreadsheet-oriented rule-followers!"

A competitive couple: "One thing we like - it's really a crap shoot, and our games are sometimes very close, while other times one of us just slaughters the other. I'm inclined to "bomb" every play I possibly can, where her strategy is denser."

A daredevil: "I think Scrabble is more for knitters and stamp collectors. WildWords is more for bungee jumpers and skydivers."

Lost his friends but now they're found: "I adore this game! I'm a pretty serious Scrabbler--not tournament level, but I love the game and take it a mite too seriously. This is a different game entirely. Double and triple words matter, but the real challenge and joy to this game is using all of your tiles. Plus, none of my friends will play Scrabble with me anymore, but they'll try this game. Sometimes they even win!"
