Playing Boggle Flash

Watch our video
of playing the game!

Along with Hangman, Scrabble and, erm, Countdown, Boggle has got to be one of the greatest word games ever created. But even bestselling classics can benefit from a 21st century reboot – and here it is in the unmistakably high-tech guise of Boggle Flash. W.O.W!

Forget about boards, dice and sand timers because Boggle Flash consists of just five LCD tiles, each of which displays a random letter. The idea is to line up the tiles to spell out as many words as possible in 90 seconds. Y.I.K.E.S!

Don’t worry about keeping score or arguing over words as you slide, swap and shuffle because clever recognition software within the tiles does it for you. At the end of each round simply join the tiles together and all of your correct words (from some or all of the tiles) are totted up to give a score. A.C.E. eh!

Example words in a Boggle Flash game

Can you find any more?

Believe us, things can get mighty R.O.W.D.Y. as you race to create new words. And because Boggle Flash’s internal dictionary is not as gullible as your opponents you can forget about trying to pass off dodgy words (‘Waddya mean, CHICO doesn’t count?). D.A.R.N.

A brilliant hour cruncher on long journeys, Boggle Flash is fun for all the family and it’s so compact you can take it almost anywhere. Trouble is, it’s so knuckle-gnawingly addictive you won’t want to leave the ‘hsueo’. A.A.R.G.H!

press review "The old school word-making game has had a 21st century makeover."

Visitor Reviews...

visitor avatar Great idea, and easy to happily destroy an evening with, but hampered a little by a slightly limited dictionary and no inclination at all to show you exactly what words you missed after a game in mode 1. Awaiting version 2!

visitor avatar I just want to ask a question. I was wondering if the batteries included would run out quickly : are they rechargeable or can you buy some more the same type, if so where from? thank you.

Firebox says: They're not rechargeable, however they can be replaced. Battery types: 5x CR2032
visitor avatar You see digital updates of classic board games over the years, which in all honestly amount to being exactly the same game except with a really annoying nasally Dalek making running commentary throughout the session. So I was surprised to see how good Boggle Flash is! It's not only a great update, I'd go as far as to say it's even better than the original! It's really simple to use too, whip it out in front of your granny and she'll be entertained by it's five blocks of fun for hours! It's a real family/party game and a must for get togethers! 100% recommended!
