Summary: A great way to enjoy a favorite game!
Review: As a fan of Boggle, I was overjoyed to find this computer version so I could play against the computer. I like being able to use the Master Boggle board (25 cubes) for an added challenge. You can set the level of difficulty by choosing the ability level of your opponent. I have three criticisms about the program: 1. The list of allowable words has some words that no one in their right mind would know. The program provides definitions for most words, but not for these obscure words...and the words you need definitions for are the obscure ones! 2. Mr. Boggle (the computer expert) comes up with all the obscure words; and 3. If you make two computer opponents with the same skill level, they list all the same words and therefore cancel each other out. It's an easy way to win, but it seems like an oversight on the part of the manufacturer. I don't enjoy the 4 variations quite as much as the original, but they are interesting to try.

Summary: a timeless game
Review: Boggle is a wonderful game that sees action year after year, even after a multitude of other games have been purchased. Yes, there are words with no definitions, but you do not need to know the definition in order to get the points for the word. (Just learn to spell it correctly!) And usually those words are the ones that no one else gets. : ) You can play regular boggle or master boggle and set the time for one minute up to five minutes rounds. You can add your own words to the dictionary. Play solo or up to three other people. The Master Boggle computer player always gets the top 35 or so words, so look out! Only wish there were more people able to play at the same time and maybe team play (2 vs. 2). The other four variations are nice, but are only for two players.

Summary: A family reunion 1500 miles away
Review: Boggle is always a feature of our family get togethers, but with all of us scattered to the winds (NY, FL, CO, OR) it's only a few times a year. After the CD-ROM version came out a few years ago, I bought several copies, gave them as gifts to the family members, and we meet online at the Microsoft Zone and play all the time. I don't know what is more fun, the game, typing messages, or using Firetalk to talk while we play. Awesome.

Review: Contrary to the previous review of this product, it DOES work with Windows ME. My computer has the ME platform, and Boggle works with it. Never have I played a ten dollar game that is so addictive. The computer game goes beyond the traditional format we all know and love to include " Boggle Battle", "In Your Face", and several other Boggle games as well as the classic version. Each game has the "classic" and "master" options, the master level being considerably harder than the classic mode.
I would even dare to say that the computer version is better than the plastic cube version because there is no shaking and little sand hourglasses to worry about. Each and every version of Boggle on the CD is very fun, In Your Face being my personal favorite. My only complaints when it comes to this game is that the animations are horribly choppy, even on my computer, which is a fairly fast machine. I also noted that the built-in dictionary used to accept words that you find neglected to accept some of the most common English words. (I had to manually enter them into the "user dictionary.") But all in all, Boggle is probably one of the biggest values in the computer game world right now.

Summary: Totally Addictive!
Review: I can't begin to tell you how often I play this game. I'll look up from the computer and two hours will have passed. I love Boggle and am pretty good at it, but it's hard to get my family members to play with me because I usually win. When playing on the computer, I can play against "advanced" players and they'll play whenever I want. (And I don't always win, so it's more challenging). Easy interface, great fun.

Summary: Boggle Addict!
Review: I have fancied myself a good Boggle player since I was introduced to the original game more than 20 years ago ... It's been difficult to find people willing to play with me! (: I purchased the CD early this year, and now play it regularly over the internet (at www.zone.com/boggle - you do need to have the CD to play there) - and it's often a humbling experience! They also regularly have tournaments at that site which are a lot of fun. You can also become "ranked" as a ladder player if you wish (at www.igl.net/zboggle). I don't know what it is about this game, but I could play it every day without tiring of it. Getting to "meet" other players of all skill levels has been great as well. It's also fun just to play against the computer, which has several skill levels to challenge you. There are a number of variations on the original game (BreakAway, Battle, Space, and In Your Face), but to me the Classic Master is the best.

Summary: Great Word Game!
Review: I have had this CD for about a year and still never tire of it. It has enhanced my vocabulary immeasurably! I really only play the "Master Boggle" instead of the reagular 3-letter Boggle. Some of the other options are very interesting to play. I like it so much, I'm ordering another to keep at the office (shhh, don't tell my boss!) Well worth the minimal cost for some brain-working fun!
