Scrabble Blast! on the GBA is basically Scrabble if it chugged an energy drink. Instead of slow, methodical word-building, you're slamming tiles together in a timed frenzy. The letters drop from the top of the screen, and you've gotta scramble (no pun intended) to make words before the pile reaches the bottom.

At first, I kept trying to play it like regular Scrabble—you know, overthinking every move—but that just gets you buried under a mountain of tiles. The trick is to spot quick 3-letter words fast, even if they're nonsense like "zax" or "qat." The music gets more frantic as the tiles pile up, and before long, you're mashing buttons like a maniac just to stay alive.

It's not deep, but it's weirdly addictive when you just want to burn five minutes. The GBA version holds up surprisingly well—no fancy graphics, just pure tile-panic chaos.
