THE RESULT

The Agarwalla brothers lost the case.

They agreed not to use the names Scrabble, Scrabulous or any other 'deceptively similar' term.

Scrabulous was removed from Facebook.

A BETTER EXAMPLE

Words With Friends, another Scrabble look-alike, was the most popular mobile game in 2017.

One major reason for its success was that Zynga took enormous efforts to avoid IP conflicts with the original game.
