Very short and unsourced article that has no potential for expansion. It hasn't been modified in years and I don't see why this can't just be summarized on the main Scrabble article under the editions section. I love TV and pizza! (talk) 02:08, 2 August 2020 (UTC)

- Looks like [1] has a number of potentially reliable reviews. I'll try to come back and look more deeply later. Hobit (talk) 18:21, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
- Weak delete. There is a short review of a digital implementation(?) at [2]. While there are some other reviews out there, most look like blog-level ones: [3]. We are missing articles on quite a few notable board games, but IMHO this one is on the wrong border of notability. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:01, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete or merge. A quick overview of WP:GAME left me with the impression that this game doesn't meet any of the criteria outlined therein. It is neither notable, covered in multiple sources or the recipient of any awards. Could possibly be simply merged with Scrabble as well? Both the original Scrabble and this variation seem to be developed by the same manufacturer so I don't see a reason why not include it with the four other variations listed on Scrabble.

- Delete or merge agree with Nearlyevil665 the game isn't notable enough to warrant its own page, but could be added to the original scrabble page. Nightenbelle (talk) 20:44, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: For whatever reason, this discussion wasn't properly added to the main AfD listings when it was created, so I'm relisting it to ensure there's at least a week of a wider audience looking at it before it gets properly closed.

- Merge with Scrabble or Delete: I'd say it's interesting and well known enough to merit a merge into the Scrabble article. // Timothy :: talk 04:14, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
- Comment: I left a neutrally worded mention of this AfD at the Scrabble talk page]. // Timothy :: talk 04:19, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
