Start by creating a precise definition of what you want it to be. What tiles are there? What is the board like? How is scoring done? How do you validate that a "word" is legit?

In addition, what set of tools will you use for the graphics (Swing, AWT, other)?

Finally, how much time do you have to do it in? Depending on your skill, this could easily be a several month project.

O_O you serious? logically it seems like such a simple project >.< what skill level would require a month, and what skill level a week or two?

to be honest i would of assumed such a thing could of been coded in a day. i spose im showing how green i am, owell.

@girl: We cannot help you unless you tell us what you have so far. Are you asking us to do it for you?
@atheium: unfortunately, it really does depend. Someone who know Java well could probably do it in a week or two. If you are completely unfamiliar with GUI programming and event handling in Java, you will make a LOT of false starts, which will slow down the process. Trying to learn aspects of a language while coding an application can be messy.

WingedPanther is right and you do need to show us what you have, we can't just code it for you. Atheium it would be easier to make a game if you were in your 5th year of Java then in your first because you would be more experienced. Also you would know most of the classes and what to do right away. From the beginning you can easily make so many mistakes, and that is what would slow you down.
