I've been sending it to basically everyone I know as a sort of "hey, this might help!".

Scrabble was very fierce in mine as well. When I inherited the old Scrabble board I found years of slips of paper used as scoresheets. I also remember getting to uni and realising that we played by a very harsh set of House Rules and that yes, pluralising a word did count as a go! And no, you don't have to skip two turns to be allowed to exchange your tiles!

The playing experience of Words With Friends feels a lot like Scrabble. There are some differences in how much letters are worth and the distribution of the premium squares. But overall it feels like a nice relaxed game of Scrabble - it's helpful that it's via your phone so there is no one staring at you and tapping their fingertips as you agonise over where to put the F.
