FoxNews writes: "A sanctioned version of Scrabble for Facebook, released this week by video game maker Electronic Arts Inc., boasts animated graphics and true-to-the-board-game design. But underneath its flashy exterior, the new Scrabble's features are very similar to those of its wildly popular but unauthorized competitor, Scrabulous.
That makes me wonder whether lots of people will switch unless, as threatened, Scrabble rights holders Hasbro Inc. and Mattel Inc. shut Scrabulous down for copyright infringement. When I fired up the official Scrabble game, my first thought was: There goes my favorite office time-waster."
Word Golf: Fairway Clash offers a unique mix of Scrabble and golf. It is casual enough to be enjoyable, and the soothing background music is a plus.
Overall, Scrabble is well polished and offers a good challenge for players of all levels. The online play is great if you can find people to play against. If not, the AI players will give you a good run for your money. The price tag is a reasonable $15 and is worth picking up if you're a fan of the game.

That’s right, the word game Scrabble. Part of the Hasbro family of games, Ubisoft has brought the classic board game to the PS4.
