Good, two player stuff could be better [Posted on 2000-05-20]
I really have fun with boggle. The only thing I wish was that it would have better games for two people to play. I still think it worth it and it can be fun as a solitary game.

Boggle is a cool game. You try to find words in a puzzle. It's kind of like a word search. It has awesome music that you can choose and neat graphics. You can choose from Battle, Classic, and Space Boggle. You can play by yourself or have up to 4 friends play with you. I like to play this game at home with my friends and family.

Does not work on Windows XP [Posted on 2003-03-02]
Enough said. It used to be fun on Win98.

Game: almost great; BEWARE: Shipping is EXPENSIVE [Posted on 2005-09-02]
The game is great. However the software has 4 different games on it. The install asks if you want all the content your hard drive so you won't need to use the CD. IN FACT, it only installs the basic game. The 3 others still want the CD in the drive to use it, a real pain.

Second: shipping was more than expensive. I thought this was coming direct from Amazon, but it came from an "outside seller," Hoots Loot. I wrote to them to complain about the shipping fee fore-warning "negative feedback." This is what I wrote to them(mostly complaining about the shipping charge, not defective software):

Dear Hoots loot,

I was disappointed with Boggle. I thought it was coming through Amazon "direct", not second hand. The shipping cost was ridiculous, several times more expensive than the CD.

The CD says it will install on the hard drive. It does; but only the first game. The other ones need to have the CD in the drive. This is a real pain.

Before I left negative feedback, the Amazon page suggested to contact you first. How can you help?


This was their icy cold reply:

Hi,

This is our policy for returning defective software, music or movies.

After selling half a million pieces of software, we realize that not all software is perfect.

However, we have found that 99% of the time, it is not the software, but usually the user or the pc it is being installed on that is the problem.

System Specs Amazon vs Ebay:

Regarding Amazon ONLY, if you have received a product that does not meet the system requirements as stated on Amazon, we have NO control over the specs listed on Amazon and do not issue refunds based on that issue. Questions regarding specs listed on Amazon need to be resolved before you buy.

Regarding Ebay we list our specs clearly in every ad and therefore will stand behind what we list and an item may be returned based on the specs.

Before returning any item, it is suggested that you:

Check with the producer or manufacturer website for updates or patches for the software you have purchased.
Be sure the system you are installing the software on is the system the software was manufactured for or the system we state in the ad it will run on.
Be sure you are allowing sufficient time for the software to install. Most items will install rapidly, however, we have seen some software that will appear not to be loading but after several minutes (as long 10 to 15 minutes in some cases) it will install.

Be sure the cd is clean. As all the product we sell is new, this is usually not a problem, however, sometimes fine dust will settle on a cd and impede the install process. By simply blowing on it will remove it the dust.

Unfortunately we can NOT replace or refund the following:

Items that were shipped 30 days previous to today's date.
Items we did not originally sell you. (Some buyers have attempted to return software not purchased from us - unfortunately, we will know if that is the case and no refund or exchange will be issued).

If you believe you have defective software, you may return it with a Letter Of Explanation as to the problem encountered, including your email address and original order number and of course your name and address..

Upon receipt we will test it.

If it loads and plays, there will be no refund or exchange of product. However, should you want the item returned, we will mail it back to you upon payment of our normal shipping rates.

If it will not load or play and has not been tampered with, we will replace or refund the item and pay the shipping, plus refund the shipping required to send the defective item back to us, up to the rates below:

All jewel case items must be returned by 1st class mail.

All retail box items must be returned by 1st class mail if possible.

You will need to send ALL THE FOLLOWING:

Item purchased with all the original packaging.
A letter explaining the problem encountered
Your email address
Your original order number
The name and address you wish a replacement to be sent.

Send the item to:

Very Well Done Graphics. [Posted on 2007-02-19]
This is a very enjoyable game, both in real life and on this PC version. I found the graphics to be excellent and almost as if one was playing the REAL BOGGLE. It even gives you the option to set your own timer and add any new words to its dictionary. Good job, Hasbro.
