Does this have a bigger board? An older person wants this and said that she's tried a couple Scrabble games and the board is really tiny.

Yes. The board is very easy to read. It opens in its own window and you can make it full screen or minimize it. I think she would like this one.

No. I'm in my twenties and wear glasses and I found it too small for my taste.

It has a thin plastic board with a these marbles on the bottom, it does not turn on highly polished or smooth surfaces (like our oak bar and glass top table). I was very disappointed with the manufacture of this. It is not like the Deluxe Scrabble we had growing up. If you could find one of the old versions on Ebay I am sure you would be much happier with it.

It's really not that much smaller than a normal board, only 3 inches shorter and not quite as wide. I don't think it would be a problem.

I would say yes, it is a good beginner board. The wheels are tight, so it is not too loosey-goosey. When she advances in her skills, you can get the wheels adjusted. Enjoy!

Yea its definitely not a regular size board. Actually its a lot smaller.....quality on it is pretty terrible as well. I definitely should have done more research before I purchased that board.

There is a Seafarers 5-6 player version in production. I am waiting for mine to be delivered! So yes other sections can be bought to increase the overall size of the board.

Probably. Ours is a wooden antique board so I imagine its smaller than the standard one and it fits well.

Yes.I think it is way too big for a five-year-old. It is a big hit with my son whose average size and nine years old. But I suspect he'll be able to use the board for at least three years.

The board is small to begin with (about half the size of a regular board game), and it will help you keep the cards and other stuff neatly inside it. As for the actual pieces, you only get 3 ships, and they have their own compartment inside the box. You can't fit the whole game in a smallish bag. The ships are VERY fragile and break easily. As careful as I am, I already broke one of the ship's bases.

This is the only Edition of the game I have if you want me to measure it I can. I don't think the boards are different sizes From the each edition.

The board is full size and the tiles are also standard full size just like the old game, but so much better. The board has small rollers so it rotates to the next player. The tiles stay in place not like the paper board game. We love it and play all the time. The case holds everything.

It's the size of a normal game board. It doesn't really grow since each play has you sliding in a piece and removing a piece. One piece is loose and used to push another off at each turn. It's our family's favorite game!

Unable to respond as we are out of town and the game is not with us. It has 3 holes for the game and grandkids enjoy it. two boards that fold in two for easier storage. Sorry unable to estimate size correctly, but perhaps 3' by 14 inches.

If your kid is 3 or older I would get the bigger maxi it has a bigger board, but the lowest night is the same as the mini and it will last longer. I brought on of each for my 2 1/2 yr o,d and 4 1/2 yr old and if I had seen them in person firtpst I would have got two of the bigger Maxi ones.

Hi...we love the giant size scrabble game...the tiles are 1 1/4" x 1 1/8" in size...quite a bit bigger than standard tiles.the board size is same material but it is way larger..which we also like....21" x 23" we have a neat felt covered game table and it works great on a lazy susan for all to play...

I think it's kinda small for a 13 year old. Regardless of fun or for real practicing she could play it but probably wouldn't get what she wants out of it. I'd go a little bigger. Hope this helps!

Yes. The game board is slightly larger - one extra square in each direction. You can ignore the extras by covering them, or not. We don't own the original, and when we played this one our first time, we played by the original rules to get a feel for how it played before adding in the additional features.
