Each player has a board in the corner of the screen, and players can pick up letters as they appear in the cube, with each letter able to go to only 1 player.
Letters can be rearranged on the individual 4 x 4 boards to spell words horizontally and vertically, but the cube keeps spinning and other players can obtain new letters during this time.
Gameplay is divided into 4 quarters, and during intermissions unwanted letters can be discarded.
The final score is tallied at the end of the game based upon all words on the board minus the value of unused letters.
There are 4 levels of gameplay.
About Commodore 64
Released in 1982, the Commodore 64 is the best-selling home computer model of all time, with an enormous software library spanning games, productivity tools, and everything in between. C64 game collecting centers on cassette tapes and floppy disks in their original packaging — physical media that's inherently fragile, so complete, working copies from the era are increasingly prized by retro computing collectors.
Gamevaro tracks Up for Grabs for Commodore 64 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Up for Grabs to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This C64 release dates back to 1983.
