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

I learned this great card game while on a cruise of the fjords of Norway and was instantly hooked! If you enjoy playing Scrabble and love to play cards, this game is for you. The night I returned from the trip, I ordered 8 sets. Everyone on my list will get this for Christmas. Just be prepared to stay up late for "just one more game".
Quiddler is fun and educational too October 12, 2008

A great find October 8, 2008
Samwise Gamgee (The Shire)
I use this game with my middle school students. It is a Friday treat and it makes them think. This game fosters belonging and is educational. The kids will help each other find words so that they can go out and not lose points! To see them working together like that and learning is great.
