If you thought playing Scrabble in your grandparents' kitsch and musty old house was your most dangerous gaming experience, you haven't heard of Extreme Scrabble yet.

Instead of Scrabblers searching for their highest play possible, they're now getting their thrills playing the game in some of the world's scariest environments. From the depths of the sea to the heights of the troposphere, Extreme Scrabble is the new, hair-raising way to play.
