Calvin and Hobbes were seen playing Scrabble in two strips (12/14 1986 and 2/28 1990)
12/14 1986
In this strip, Calvin asked Hobbes how many points he got from the word "be" (2 points). Calvin then yelled, "2 points?! Is that ***** all??" , where Hobbes remarked, "My, this game does teach new words!". He then went on to spell "zygomorphic" on a triple word score box (150 points). Calvin took the "i" from Hobbes' word to spell "in" (3 points). Then, Hobbes took the "n" to spell "nucleoplasm" (40 points), at which point Calvin kicked the board over and played poker.
2/28 1990
In this strip, Calvin spelt the word "Zqfmgb" on a double word score box. Hobbes said that "Zqfmgb" wasn't a word, but he asked "What's your score for 'Zqfmgb'?". Calvin replied "957."
