  5 46 9.2 Jupyter Notebook

  A crossword board game AI, written in Go

But you can also go one step further, and I'd highly recommend you do. Quackle will run a simulation (i. e., a Monte Carlo rollout) of the game situation to find the move that leads to the best winning chances. This is still by no means a perfect solver of Scrabble, but it is a very instructive tool to understand how to play the game well. Elise does the same thing with some twists and additional features, but isn't quite as user-friendly and only runs on Mac. Both programmes are freeware. There is another engine, Macondo, currently in development that aims to improve on these existing ones. It does not have a GUI yet.

  20 74 9.3 Go

  A site that allows people to play a crossword board game against each other

  

- Playing online: there is woogles.io which I personally would recommend; it's made by players for players and is free to use. Among the features are: play against humans, play against strong bots, tournaments, feedback on your moves after the game, availability of different languages and game variants. Other options are: playscrab.com (also made by players for players); isc.ro (the Internet Scrabble Club); the app Scrabble Go and, if you don't mind playing with slightly altered game rules, Wordfeud, which comes along with a large online league (not technically affiliated with the app itself).
