To place your word, choose a letter from your rack that you want to place. Then choose the square on which you want to place the tile. If you wish to move the letter, choose it again and move it to another square. Continue this process with at least one other tile until you have finished placing your word. The tiles must connect, and must be placed either vertically or horizontally. Note: the first word placed in a game MUST cross the star in the center of the board. The star counts as a double word score premium square (see PREMIUM SQUARES for scoring). To scroll to other areas of the board while in "zoom" mode, use the arrows located outside the board screen. NOTE:You cannot place tiles on the board when you are in the fully zoomed out mode. Zoom in to one of the 2 closer views in order to place tiles on the board. When you are finished placing your word, choose ENTER. If your word is accepted and not challenged, the total points (main score) will appear directly under your name (see SCORING). If you placed a tile on a premium square, including the center star square, your score will reflect it. The total points for each individual turn will appear under your main score. The tiles you placed on the board will be replaced on your rack. Once letters are played on the Scrabble board, they may not be moved. NOTE: a blank tile can be used as any letter. When you place a blank tile, you will be asked to enter the letter it represents. It will remain this letter throughout the game. Blank tiles have no point value. 1 ENDING THE GAME 2 The game ends when all the letters have been drawn and one player uses his or her last letter, or when no more legal words can be made (all players PASS in a single round).
