Editorial/Description:

Product Description: The challenge of Quiddler is to arrange your entire hand into words. Draw and discard in turn. Try to use those high point letters, but don't get caught with them uncombined! Quiddler is fast paced because you can play using everyday words. A bonus is given for the most words in each round (so little words can help you win), as well as for the longest word. Quiddler is a delightful challenge for both rookies and word game lovers. Quiddler is for up to eight players.

Editorial Review: The rules are brutal, but the rewards are worth it in this card game that works a bit like Scrabble. Although there is a solitary version of the game for one player, you can play with up to eight. Cards containing letters of the alphabet and special combinations of letters are dealt in increasing number each time the dealer completes a round. Once you've collected your share, you can discard and pick up a new card with each turn. The object is to turn all the letters in your possession into dictionary-proof words while leaving one stray card as a final discard. You want to be the first to accomplish the goal, of course, but there is a scoring system that makes the play competitive for everyone. One nice element is the cards themselves: the letter design is based on beautiful artwork from Celtic manuscripts. This card game is a 1999 Parents' Choice Silver Award winner. --Tom Keogh


Customer Reviews:

A+ for FUN!   January 4, 2009
I bought this game for family game nights over the holidays. It was an absolute hit. I was a little leery about purchasing a card game based on internet recommendations alone, but rest assured this game is well worth it. If you like word games, Quiddler is sure to be a winner. The game is very simple to learn and doesn't require a long time to play.


Great gift   December 29, 2008
I bought this as a gift for my 9 year old daughter and we love it. We've played it together a few times and it's a lot of fun and it's great for learning. Playing the game with me is helping her learn bigger words and reinforcing words she already knows and can spell. I would recommend it to any one that wants a fun and educational toy for their child. It's also a great way to spend quality time with your child as they learn and have fun.


A favorite card game   December 21, 2008
We have been playing Quiddler for years and are always introducing friends and family to this fun game. I purchased 4 to give out for Christmas gifts. Even sent one to Italy this year. It's a nice balance of luck and skill. If you like scrabble, you'll like Quiddler. It's a shorter, less intense game and helps everyone work on word skills.


scrabble for the new millennium   December 17, 2008
this is a good way to help kids with spelling. it's fun for adults as well. at thanksgiving last year, about 10 of us sat around and played for about 2 hours.


Great family game   December 16, 2008
This is a fun family game. It makes you think and then when you think you have it, something happens and you have to change your whole thinking. Its a lot more fun with more than 2 people, but even with 2 it gets interesting after the first few rounds. The first couple rounds are easy, but when you get more cards, thats when the fun really starts.
