uixotic |
Quixotic is a free online computer Scrabble® opponent. You can choose from
different skill levels as well as two different dictionaries. The board
display has a number of switchable tilesets. Alternately, you can play in
text-only mode, which works great in ELinks. The non-text-only version of the game
uses a small amount of Javascript.
Blank tiles will be used automatically when you play a letter you don't have. If you want to explicitly place a blank, put the corresponding letter in parentheses: e.g. "sin(g)ing". Other than that, the interface will hopefully be self-explanatory.
The two dictionaries offered are both complete tournament dictionaries, so be aware that offensive words may be used! (However, the North American dictionary, NWL2020, lacks offensive slurs such as racial slurs.)
No plugins are needed to play Quixotic; it works through a standard web browser. To save your game, click the "Save" button in the upper right panel, then just bookmark the URL in the address bar when it tells you to.
